RCIA
Are You Interested in Becoming Catholic?
​​
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a Journey of Faith for adults seeking to join the Catholic Church. It’s also designed for baptized Catholics who now wish to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.
​​
Participants begin with a journey of enquiring and learning about Scripture, nurturing a relationship with God, becoming familiar with Catholic teachings and practices, professing their faith in Jesus and the Church, and receiving the sacraments of initiation – Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. The Church extends an invitation to all who wish to learn more about the Catholic faith and to become members of the Catholic Church
​
If you are interested in enrolling in the RCIA, please contact Father Nilo by phone at (403) 415-6183 or by email at nilmac2003@yahoo.ca.
RCIC
Is Your Child Interested in Joining the Catholic Church?
​
We are excited to share the Rite of Christian Initiation of Children (RCIC) with you!
This program serves as an introduction to the Catholic way of life, inviting children to experience it firsthand and become part of our parish community. Children and their families are encouraged to ask questions and engage with their faith in a supportive environment, allowing for growth and a deeper understanding of our faith.
Our goal is to help each child grow in faith, understand their identity as children of God, and prepare them to be fully initiated into the vibrant life of the Catholic Church. The children will receive the sacraments of Baptism, Holy Communion and Confirmation.
We share the cathechesis every Saturday from 1:00pm until 3:00 pm. The children will receive the three sacraments on the Easter Vigil 2026.
You and your friends are invited to join our RCIC at Saint Vital Parish. If you are interested in learning more or registering your child for this enriching journey, please contact our Reverend Father Nilo at nilmac2003@yahoo.com
