Youth Initiation (OCIC)

The Order of Christian Initiation for Children (OCIC) is a program for children aged 7 and older who have not been baptized or have not yet received the sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation. It helps children learn about the Catholic faith, participate in Church life, and prepare to fully join the Catholic community.

The program includes religious education classes, participation in special liturgical celebrations, and family involvement. Children are guided step by step toward receiving the sacraments, and after the celebrations, families continue to reflect and grow in faith together. OCIC welcomes children who are ready to learn, pray, and take part in the life of the Church.
