Becoming Catholic

Do you know someone who is not Catholic and who is not active in any particular religious denomination? Does she or he want find out more about Jesus, explore Christianity at an in-depth level, and possibly consider the Catholic Church? Transfiguration offers Inquiry Sessions for adults who are interested in knowing more about our Catholic way of life.

Inquiry is a series of informal meetings based on the Inquirer’s questions. Those questions become the agenda for our Inquiry sessions. There is no commitment required, only a spirit of openness. Please consider reaching out to someone you know – a neighbor, a co-worker, a friend, and invite them to come to these sessions. For more information contact OCI@transfiguration.old.diocesanweb.org.
