​

We are delighted that you are considering becoming a member of the Catholic Church and the St. Joseph Catholic Church family. Whether you are exploring the Catholic faith for the first time, have been attending Mass and would like to learn more, or are seeking to complete your Sacraments, we warmly welcome individuals and families from all walks of life.

The Catholic Church offers a process called the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) for those interested in becoming Catholic. Through OCIA, participants learn about the teachings, traditions, and beliefs of the Catholic faith while growing in their relationship with Jesus Christ. These classes provide an opportunity to ask questions, deepen your understanding of the faith, and discern God's call in your life.

Participation in OCIA classes is required for adults seeking to enter the Catholic Church or complete their Sacraments of Initiation.

If you are interested in learning more about becoming Catholic or would like to register for OCIA classes, please contact:
