But his father ordered his servants,

‘Quickly bring the finest robe and put it on him;

put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.

Take the fattened calf and slaughter it.

Then let us celebrate with a feast,

because this son of mine was dead, and has come to life again;

he was lost, and has been found.’

Then the celebration began.

~Luke 15

Order of Christian Initiation of Adults


OCIA is a process of spiritual formation which prepares adults for full initiation into the faith.


At Saint Kateri Parish, we meet as a small group to explore and discuss the foundations of our Catholic faith and help each other to grow in our relationship with the Lord.


OCIA is for:

  • Anyone who is curious about the Catholic Church
  • Anyone who is interested in becoming Catholic
  • Adult Catholics who have not completed the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, First Communion, or Confirmation).
