Thinking about becoming Catholic?

Are you are seeking Baptism into the Catholic Church? We have a pathway for everyone of all ages to help you respond more deeply to the movement of God in your life and prepare you to take your place in the Catholic Community.
Perhaps, you are baptized Catholic but have not received the Sacrament of Eucharist and Confirmation? This is the place for you.
We have a program at St. Benedict Church, O.C.I.A. (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults which was formally R.C.I.A.) that will guide and prepare you for the journey to the Sacraments. OCIA is a period of formation where we pursue the truths, teachings, and practices of our Catholic Faith in an open forum, with sound presentations and lively discussions. This process involves time not only for instruction, but also growth in the practice of the faith through discussion and prayer.
Classes normally meet on Sunday mornings.

Are you a baptized Roman Catholic, made your First Communion and have not received the Sacrament of Confirmation? We offer an Adult Confirmation sessions in additional to other formation classes for those under 16.
