Come and celebrate the joy of worship with us ... you are most welcome!
Our Worship We celebrate mass based on traditional catholic liturgical worship. Although we are not at all connected with the Roman Catholic Church, we are a fully catholic church and do share the same traditional and historical roots. We are a fully sacramental church albeit theologically modern, respecting the beauty of liturgical service while teaching the importance of internal spirituality. Our Communion table is open to all, regardless of race, creed, or sexual orientation. We do not feel that communion is a reward for being good or for following the rules. Christ shares his gift and sacrifice with all of God's children, whether or not they belong to our church, or any church.
