Do you know someone who is interested in becoming Catholic or delving deeper into the Faith? Or are you already baptized Catholic but missing a Sacrament? Our O.C.I.A. (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults) class is the perfect solution! Ideal for non-Catholics seekers or Catholic adults who have not yet received First Eucharist and/ or Confirmation, this no-pressure lecture and discussion group is open to anyone wanting to learn more about the Catholic Faith.

Classes are held on Thursday nights at 7pm, September through May, in the Parish Life Center. Those wishing to receive Sacraments or join the Church will do so at Easter. All reading materials are provided free of charge. Contact Dr. Katherine Evans, OCIA Director, at 540-373-6491 x 210 or kevans@stmaryfred.org for more information.
