📚 Resources from Todays Show:
➡ OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults)
OCIA is the process by which adults are gradually introduced to the Roman Catholic faith and way of life. It is the updated name for what was formerly known as RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults).
For the most accurate and up-to-date information, I recommend contacting your local parish directly. They can provide details about their specific OCIA programs, schedules, and any upcoming sessions.
