Welcome to the Deanery II O.C.I.A. (The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults)


This is the process where adults begin the process of becoming full, active, participating members of the Catholic Church.

 

 We welcome all who wish to participate fully in the Catholic Church.  Our mission is to help God's people to prepare for full initiation in our faith.
