REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN for the 2026-2027 Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (O.C.I.A.) now through September 1st! The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults is an invitation for adults to explore their interests, or to enhance their knowledge in the Roman Catholic Church. The O.C.I.A. lays out a process in which men and women are guided and cared for as they awaken in faith and are gradually introduced to the Catholic way of life. The Nativity Parish will begin O.C.I.A. classes in the Fall. Participants will meet weekly for nine months in the Sacred Heart Center. If you are interested, please contact Greg or Penny Payne at 228-365-6348.

The Marian Chapel Reliquary will be open for visits on Fridays in June and July from 8:30 until 10:30. Anyone wishing to view the relics or spend time in prayer among the saints, is welcome to come. Volunteers will be present to answer questions or help with finding information about the relics or cathedral. Questions can be directed to [email protected].
