Becoming Catholic
Each person’s journey of faith is unique and rich. If you are interested in becoming Catholic, please contact us to get your questions answered. You will never journey alone as you learn about the Catholic Faith. If you choose to become Catholic, the process usually takes about nine months from September to after Easter. Because each person’s journey of faith is unique some may be ready or initiation sooner and others may wish to take more time. Each person’s particular situation is taken into account. Each participant has a sponsor who is a Catholic, and who attends the weekly meetings and special celebrations throughout the year with them. At Easter time, those wishing to become Catholic celebrate Baptism (if they have not been baptized before), Confirmation and the Eucharist.  For more information, please contact Valerie Scott.

Adult Catechesis
Adults wishing to learn more about their faith are encouraged to attend Journey of Faith sessions. We gather in community on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Wednesdays of the month from 6:30pm to 8:00pm (September through June) to gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be Catholic. Attend all nights or just the topics you find intriguing. For more information, please contact .
