A Welcoming Community of Faith Rooted in the Catholic Tradition.
​Consecrated July 7, 1997
Mission Statement
Mark 9:38-40: Whoever Is Not Against Us Is for Us
​
(38) “Teacher,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of is.”
(39) “Do not stop him,” Jesus said. “For no one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about, (40) for whoever is not against us is for us.”
“We, the Catholic community of the Evangelical Catholic Church, consecrate our vocation to the Pastoral Mission to proclaim Christ and to witness by example and to teach the Good News, to celebrate our sacramental life in the greater community, to unconditionally love and serve as Jesus commanded and to continue preserving and growing the Catholic Faith.”
​
Vision Statement
“As a validly consecrated Catholic church we commit ourselves to be pro-actively visible and engaged within all Communities-at-Large, unconditionally sharing our Catholic spirituality with all, and remaining committed to serving God and His People.”
Our Core Values
Relationships with the People of God
We will always speak the truth; respect the personhoods, opinions and journeys of all we meet, and to value each person, always maintaining Christian charity in all of our actions.
​
Spiritual Growth
We will seek to increase the understanding of our Catholic faith and expand our spiritual growth by participating in and supporting charitable and spiritual activities, in addition to our participation in celebrating the Eucharist.
Social Justice and Peace
This Catholic Community of faith believes that in Judeo-Christian theology and scripture, social justice and peace are interrelated and have profound contemporary spiritual value. We accept and believe that social justice is an extension of God's love and work, and that working for justice and peace IS God's work. In the Catholic tradition, peace is built on justice and the recognition that all people are equally dignified by God without exception.
Inclusion
We will be open and inviting by extending ourselves to all by sharing in our parish life; thereby, reaffirming our vision of being pro actively visible in the community.
Professionalism
We dedicate ourselves to providing the People of God with clergy and religious meeting the highest of professional standards and of sound personal and spiritual character.
Legacy
We will preserve our rich spiritual and sacramental history by respecting the past, continuing in service and faith in the present, being open to the direction of the Holy Spirit, and committing to the future of the Evangelical Catholic Church.
