OCIA Ministry Team

The OCIA Ministry Team is open to all in Holy Spirit and St. Joseph's who wish to welcome those who are seeking full participation in the life of the Catholic Church. Together, we share faith and journey alongside those who are in the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults process. The only prerequisite is being open to learning and growing in faith yourself!

What do we do?

• We share faith with each other and the candidates, focused on breaking open the Word in the Sunday readings;

• We offer the hospitality of our Catholic community to the candidates;

• We study and pray together, and support each other's spiritual needs;

• We share our knowledge of the teachings of the Church and the tenets of our faith with the candidates, while at the same time still growing in knowledge and understanding ourselves;

• We help facilitate the dynamics of the group and offer individual support to the candidates and their sponsors;

• We make the journey together.

• We model what it means to grow together as a small Christian community.

• We love and support each other.
