    Why Be Catholic?
    • Hello there!

      We are glad you are here at this page!  If you are asking this question - "Why be Catholic?" - you might be inquiring about the possibility of being Catholic or perhaps you might be a life-long Catholic wondering what your faith is really about.  No matter where you are at, we are here to help you!

      Below are some resoures that might be helpful for you. 

      If you are a non-Catholic who is interested in becoming Catholic, the Church has a process called the Order of Initiation for Adults (formerly Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults), that provides accompaniment and formation in the Catholic faith.
