THE SACRAMENT OF BAPTISM
Parents who desire to bring their children into the life of the Church trough Baptism are asked to call the Parish Office at 631-728-9461 to arrange baptismal preparation. Children who have reached the age of 7 years and older are required to complete one year of religious formation before arranging for baptism. Teenagers who have reached the age of 17 and have not yet been baptized may be accepted into our OCIA program; see below.
FIRST HOLY COMMUNION
Children are invited to receive this sacrament after completing two consecutive years of formation and preparation. A child’s First Holy Communion is usually scheduled during the spring of his/her second-grade year, but older children who have not yet received this sacrament may enroll in our two-year program at their current grade level.
THE SACRAMENT OF CONFIRMATION
The sacrament of Confirmation is usually celebrated in the fall of a child’s 10th grade year after a period of formation. We have various classes for teenagers in 9th – 11th grade who have not been previously enrolled in our confirmation preparation program. Teenagers who have reached the age of 17 and have not yet been confirmed may be accepted into our OCIA program.
OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults) – Sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation
Are you 17 years of age or older interested in receiving the sacraments of initiation into the Catholic Church? We offer Sunday morning classes for adults desiring to be baptized, or baptized adults wanting to be confirmed in the Catholic Church. Teenagers who have reached the age of 17 and have not yet been baptized or confirmed may be accepted into our OCIA program. Adults 21 years of age and older will need to meet with our pastor before classes begin in September.
SPECIAL NEEDS CATECHESIS AVAILABLE
We have an adaptive curriculum for children and adults with special needs.
