RCIC Registration for Sacrament Year 2 Students

The Religious Education department is now taking registrations for the Sacrament of RCIC that will take place in the spring of 2021.
This is for children who are in their second year of preparation for RCIC.

For those who missed the Sacrament of RCIC Information Meeting, a recording of the meeting will be posted by Monday, December 7.
A Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page will also be available by that date. Sacrament Registration Deadline: January 15, 2021

Parents/Guardians will receive a confirmation email when all the pieces of the registration have been received and processed. There will be a period of processing time before the sacrament program requirements are emailed.   ​

Christian Initiation Programs for Children, Youth, and Adults

In the Catholic Church, those who are interested in becoming Catholic, or need to complete their sacraments of initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist),  or were baptized into another Christian faith and wish to become Catholic, join a program called the R.C.I.A.

R.C.I.A. stands for Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (or children). This program is a journey where one learns more about the Catholic faith and specifically, the sacraments they will receive.

Those entering into this program are placed into a group based on their age level and the stage they are at in their journey (the sacraments they need to receive).   The first stage is a period of inquiry where basic information about the Catholic church is received and shared.   It is a structured, instructional and interactive program that begins in mid-September and ends just after Easter.
