OCIA

About

Each year on Holy Saturday during the Easter Vigil, thousands are baptized into the Catholic Church in the United States. Parishes welcome these new Catholics through the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA).

Baptism for Adults – Interested in becoming Catholic, or know someone who is? The Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA) is a year long process of Christian formation for those searching and inquiring about the Catholic faith. It is open to individuals 18+ seeking Baptism or wish to be received in the Catholic Church, or those seeking to complete their sacraments of Communion and Confirmation. Classes start in the Fall and end with the 2026 Easter Vigil. Please speak with Deacon Al Cala or contact the Parish Office at office@windsorcatholic.org or call 860-688-4905 for more information.
