Education
Children | Teens  | Adults | RCIA-Packets

Two critically important components of the education program at St. Vincent are organized by the Director of Religious Education for Adults.

RCIA: The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults is a journey for those seeking information about Catholicism and those with the desire of being fully incorporated into the Church. Patterned after the catechumenate of the ancient church, the revised program begins in Lent and culminates with the Baptism and/or Confirmation of the catechumens/candidates at the Easter Vigil. The program has educational components as well as ritual components as the RCIA travelers are introduced and made part of the worshiping community.  For more information, contact the DRE for Adults, Anne Maura English at St. Vincent's.

"Together Sharing Christ"  known more commonly as "The Packet."  St. Vincent's has pioneered the distribution of this 20+ page educational supplement for over 20 years.  It is published and mailed 6 times a year to over 400 families in many states and xxxx countries who request to be on the St. Vincent's distribution list.  The Packet contains reprints of serious articles about the faith, letters from the Pastor and Editor, minutes of Parish Council meetings, as well as family oriented activities appropriate to the various seasons.  You can download PDF files of past Packets here, or request that you be placed on the St. V's mailing list to receive future packets.
