The OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults) is a spiritual formation journey for those seeking to become Catholic and it is happening every year in the 139 parishes of the Archdiocese of Washington!
In the OCIA you will learn about Catholic Christianity – who we are, what we believe, how we pray, how we live our lives as a community of believers. But this spiritual journey is more than just faith formation – at its core the OCIA is a journey of conversion and relationship with Jesus Christ and his Church. There is no obligation, cost or commitment – if, at any time, you change your mind or simply feel now is not the right time, we respect your decision.
If you want to learn more, or think you are being called to become Catholic, contact Mr. William Wannall, at 240.416-3407 or email him here to join with others who are interested in experiencing what being Catholic is all about.
Classes are free and and are held on Sunday mornings from 10:30-11:30am and childcare is available at no cost. Classes begin in September 13, 2026.
