Vision Statement

All the baptized will see themselves on pilgrimage in Christ's mission for the world.

All the baptized are actively involved in mission having been inspired by the exchange of personal/communal stories of peoples throughout the world.

All the baptized, as a result of our use of media and technology, have an increased desire and hunger to participate in Christ's mission for the world.

All the baptized are missionaries for the world.
