Becoming Catholic Session Schedule



Have your travels taken you near and far? Is there a deep longing within you for something more? Catholicism is a way of life and becoming a Catholic is a life long journey in faith.

Becoming Catholic is a process which educates in the Catholic faith and, 
if so desired, prepares adults to receive the sacraments of the Church. 
More than that, it involves entering into a relationship 
with the risen Christ and a community of God’s people.

Do you know someone who has fallen away from the Catholic Church? 
Or maybe you are an adult (age 18 and older) in need of the Sacrament of Confirmation?

If you know someone who has fallen away from the Catholic Church...Statistics show that most people who have drifted away from the Catholic Church still identify themselves as Catholics — it’s ingrained into their very being. Many want to return to the sacramental life of the Catholic Church, but don’t know where to start. Do you know somebody who has been away from the Catholic Church? Often, all it takes is a word of invitation. Invite them to explore our Welcome Home Ministry. We offer a series of sessions designed to help seekers find answers to their questions, rediscover their Catholic roots, and gently return to the sacramental life of the Catholic Church. 


If you are an adult (age 18 and older) in need of the Sacrament of Confirmation...There are many reasons why baptized Catholics who have received the sacrament of Holy Eucharist sometimes do not complete their initiation into the Catholic Church by receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation. Regardless of your situation, we invite you to grow in your faith and complete your sacramental initiation into the Catholic Church. Our Welcome Home Ministry offers a 9-week series of sessions designed to accompany you through this process.
