An unbaptized person may wish to explore becoming a Catholic. Every fall, a group of adults gather to begin that process. They meet our deacon and a priest. The group (known as the Catechumenate) moves in stages or steps toward Lent and the Easter Vigil when Baptism is celebrated.
Someone baptized in a Christian church may now wish to be a Catholic. A group similar to the Catechumenate receives instruction, guidance, and support. Reception into the church usually also takes place at the Easter Vigil.
Baptized Catholics frequently discover they have yet to “become Catholic”. Some who missed essential religious formation may now be eager to continue the growth that all Catholics should experience. Throughout the year, the parish offers series and sessions for such adults.
Please email or call the parish office to begin your journey of becoming a Catholic.
The Men of St. Joseph is an association of Christian men, united under the Catholic Church, who meet weekly to pray together and encourage each other to be the spiritual leaders of their families. At St. Mary's the local chapter of The Men of St. Joseph meet each Tuesday at 6:30 am in the lower Church.
