Discover Your Purpose: Child & Teen OCIA

Are you asking the big questions? Maybe you were never baptized. Maybe you were baptized in another faith, or perhaps you just never finished your First Communion or Confirmation. Regardless of where you are starting, Teen OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults, adapted for teens) is a place where you can explore the Catholic faith on your own terms.

At St. Stephen, we are committed to advancing the kingdom of Jesus Christ by meeting you exactly where you are. Our teen program is designed to:

  • Foster Spiritual Growth: Explore the power of the sacraments and find out what they mean for your life today.
  • Build Community: Join a strong and supportive group of peers who are also searching for meaning and friendship.
  • Make an Impact: Experience how faith transforms lives through selfless service to those in need.



This isn’t just another class—it’s a journey toward becoming the person God created you to be. Whether you’re ready to dive in or just want to ask some questions, there is a seat at the table for you.
