Are you a baptized Protestant thinking about becoming Catholic or an unconfirmed Catholic who has yet to receive the sacrament of Confirmation? WELCOME!  We look forward to helping you become fully initiated! 

For those validly baptized in a Protestant tradition, or for baptized but unconfirmed Catholics, the steps to becoming a fully initiated Catholic consist of participating in one of three small group cohorts offered during the Fall, Winter, and Spring. Each cohort covers 10 sessions. 

Candidates must complete all 10 classes before receiving the sacraments of initiation. Miss a class? No problem! Just attend the corresponding class offered during the next cohort. 

The Fall cohort begins Sunday morning, Sept 7th, 2025. 

The Winter cohort begins January 11th, 2026.

The Spring cohort begins April 19, 2026. 

THESE COHORTS CAN PREPARE NO ONE FOR BAPTISM! Those needing baptism should register for our upcoming OCIA program (Order of the Christian Initiation of Adults), which will begin in February 2026. Look for more information in the months ahead.
