Are you a baptized Christian or baptized Catholic who has not received the Sacraments of Eucharist or Confirmation? Were you never baptized but are seeking to enter into full communion with the Catholic Church? 

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process by which adults complete the Sacraments of Initiation, which are; Baptism, First Eucharist, and Confirmation. 

Classes start at the beginning of the school year with the goal of receiving the Sacraments of Initiation at the Easter Vigil. You may inquire about joining the group at any time. 

The RCIA Program educates adults on the sacraments, precepts, and teachings of the Church. We will also provide assistance with selecting a Sponsor. Your Sponsor is someone who is Catholic and is already in full union with their Church. This is an importnat choice because their role is to you on your journey to become Catholic. 

For those who are not yet adults, The Order of Christian Initiation for Children (OCIC) is the process by which one completes the Sacraments of Initiation according to their age. Classes also take place throughout the school year. 

If you are interested in RCIA or OCIC Programs, please email our Director of Religious Education at dre@olmjasper.org to explore your options.
