Are you interested in coming into full communion with the Catholic Church through the Sacrament of Confirmation? As Catholics, we believe that Confirmation graces the Baptized with the Holy Spirit to ‘go and make disciples of all nations’ (Mt 28:19). If you have not yet received the Sacrament of Confirmation, please email Fr. Gerry, fwaterma@syr.edu

Fr. Gerry will assist with wedding inquiries and with the marriage preparation program. Please email him at fwaterma@syr.edu or call 315-443-2649.
ORDER OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION FOR ADULTS (OCIA)
The OCIA program will meet your needs to explore the beauty of the Catholic faith through brief presentations, discussions, and companionship throughout the Fall and Spring Semester. These sessions will prepare you to be received fully into the Catholic Church through the reception of the Sacraments of Initiation – Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation – at the Easter Vigil.
