Becoming Catholic (Christian Initiation)

Welcome! 

Have you been to Our Lady of Grace for Mass? 

Have you joined us from a different faith background and would like to find out more about the Catholic Church?

Do you have questions about the faith but not sure where to find answers?

If these questions apply to you, we would love to help you in your journey!  Or, if you know of anyone who could answer YES to any of the above questions, perhaps you should extend an invitation to them!

If you are already Catholic but have been away for awhile or if you been a Catholic all your life, but never celebrated Confirmation and/or Eucharist be assured ...

We also have a pathway for those who would like to return to the Catholic faith and/or receive Christian Initiation Sacraments not yet received.

For more information, please contact our Director of Religious Education, Chris Flack, at 215-757-5530 or [email protected]

We provide time for prayer and reflection, we help you form or deepen a relationship with Jesus, we help you understand and appreciate the Liturgy, we introduce you to the community and what parish life and being Catholic is all about, we provide instruction on the faith, we teach you how to share your faith with others.
Everyone is on their own unique faith journey and therefore the Christian Initiation journey can take different amounts of time and might look different for each person. The important thing is just to get started. No one grows by standing still.
Let your journey be your journey and let it take as long as it takes - it is all God's time. God is the one who has called you to investigate the Catholic faith you only have to respond.
