Non-Catholics wanting children to receive the sacraments: We advise non-catholic parents to complete the OCIA programme through the parish before their children go through the sacramental programme. There are, however, sometimes exceptions to this rule. If you would like to discuss this further, please email us BEFORE enrolling in the programme outlining why you believe your family is an exception
