How Do I Become Catholic? | Catholicism for Catholics with Blessed is She

Are you wondering, “How do I become Catholic?” You’re not alone and you’re in the right place! In this episode of Catholicism for Catholics, Alison Oertle walks through the beautiful invitation of the Catholic Church and explains the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA), the process through which adults are welcomed into the fullness of the faith.Becoming Catholic isn’t just about joining a church, it’s saying yes to a lifelong relationship with the God of the universe. Through baptism, confirmation, and Eucharist, we receive His grace, live in communion with the Church, and grow closer to Jesus every day.Alison compares the OCIA process to a love story with God, starting with inquiry (getting to know Him), moving through the catechumenate (falling in love and learning about the faith), and preparing for initiation at the sacraments. Whether you’re a new Christian or already walking with Him, OCIA is a chance to encounter Jesus and experience His love in a profound way. 💜“The future depends on love.” What you fall in love with shapes your life. Let this invitation into the Church transform your heart, your daily life, and your understanding of God’s grace.If you’re ready to explore the Catholic faith, consider contacting a local parish to attend an inquiry session, the first step in your journey with Jesus and His Church. ⛪️Head over to our YouTube channel to watch our Catholicism for Catholics series.
