What is this mysterious OCIA?  The newly translated Order of Christian Initiation of Adults brings some new terms and renews the vision of this process of bringing people into the church. This is a wonderful opportunity to review and reevaluate our own processes and embrace the true vision of this process! Join us for a quick look at the theological and practical implications of a new translation, and get a sneak peek at some of the changes we can expect!
