Young Adults
YA at St. Joseph participate in the Adults Formation program but also have their own spaces where they socialize, pray and adore the Lord in their distinctive way. Come to the Encounters on the first Wednesdays at 6:30 pm in the Church or to the Cornerstone meeting on the Fourth Friday at 7:00 pm in the Social Hall. You will be welcomed and receive more information.
OCIA – The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults
Is the process for adults who desire to join the Catholic faith and for those seeking more information on the Catholic Church. OCIA can also be a method for Catholics to complete their reception of the initiation sacraments.
At St. Joseph we offer a program that starts in September with sessions that progressively cover the foundations of the Catholic Faith. However, any person that is inquiring about Catholicism is welcome to come at anytime of the year and participate in any of the Formation opportunities that are offered. The OCIA process is a personal journey. It usually takes from 2 to 3 years to prepare and receive the initiation sacraments.
Special Programs:
Workshops, Conferences and Retreats are published in the weekly bulletin and in the Parish Events section.
We suggest registering to the Formation Program of your preference. Although there is no obligation to participate in these programs, they are a good way to grow in our Faith, Learn, Strengthen our relationship with Jesus and belong in Community. It is strongly suggested to the the parents of children registered to our Formation Program to attend any of the weekly sessions to model and live a family life centered in Jesus.
