St. John’s welcomes all those who are seeking a deeper relationship with the Trinity through the Roman Catholic Church.  The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) is a spiritual journey leading to the celebration of the three sacraments of initiation – Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist. (Once you have celebrated these three sacraments you are considered to be fully initiated into the Church.)
