Baptism

Baptism is the doorway to life in the Spirit and the gateway to the other sacraments — welcoming a new member, child or adult, into the life of Christ and His Church.

Registration: Open year-round. Email the Sacraments Office to begin preparation.

First Reconciliation

Children preparing for First Eucharist first celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation, encountering God's mercy and forgiveness for the first time.

2025–2026 registration: Closed. Sign up for a 2026–2027 reminder.

First Eucharist

Children receive Jesus in the Eucharist for the first time, entering fully into the sacramental life of the Church at the table of the Lord.

2025–2026 registration: Closed. Sign up for a 2026–2027 reminder.

Confirmation

Confirmation seals and strengthens the grace of Baptism, sending candidates out with the gifts of the Holy Spirit to live and witness the faith.

2025–2026 registration: Closed. Sign up for a 2026–2027 reminder.

Urgent or hospital requests: Call the parish office at 403-257-6054. For hospitalized parishioners, ask hospital staff to contact the on-call Catholic chaplain.

Funeral Planning

Our parish supports grieving families through the Funeral Mass and burial rites, honouring a loved one's life in the hope of the Resurrection.
