​​New-Intake for "Adult Enquiry to the Catholic Faith"

• ​The RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) is a program of induction into the Catholic Church through the sacraments of  Baptism,  Confirmation and Eucharist. But, more than that, it is a faith journey designed to meet our fundamental spiritual needs as God’s children  and help us identify with and become a part of a faith community.  
  
• CATHOLICS BE PRO-ACTIVE; If you know of friends who are interested in making enquiry into the Catholic Faith and deepening your personal relationship with Jesus Christ, if you are seeking to learn about Catholicism as the result of an interfaith marriage or other relationship, have not fully completed the sacraments of initiation, or simply wonder what the journey entails, please register now at the Parish office. 
• Next In-take will start in July, with 1ST PRELIMINARY MEETING ON Thursday 18 July 2024 at 7.00pm for new registration.
• ​Visit our webpage <https://www.omphip.org/rcia-ministry.html> for more details.

Car Park consideration:​​​

• Our fore-fathers and mothers had a foresight when they decided to build this Church. They made sure that we have enough parking bays for worshippers. We certainly have a big car park! It is the envy of many churches.
  
• But, the parking bays are limited and cars are continuously increasing. So, when you come for worship please be thoughtful of others who use the car park. Be patient, Be helpful, Be careful, Be understanding.
  
• Everyone wants to get home safely, without damaging other cars as we drive out. Thank you for you kind consideration.
