We believe that all people are created with sacred worth. Therefore, we recognize the importance of serving all people spiritually and emotionally. We strive for our ministries, publications, and programs to reach out to all who seek catholic spirituality, support and spiritual growth. It is imperative that our ministries and outreaches be free of discrimination on the basis of race, color, gender, age, creed, religion, national origin, ethnicity, physical disability, mental or emotional disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Our sincere desire is to ensure that all organizations within the Old Catholic Church of the Americas be utterly free of discrimination in any form.

In our effort to reach out to all people as did Jesus Christ, we requrie our ministers, teachers, and others within the church to honor the strength of diversity within their spiritual communities. It is with love and in celebration of our unity, in the midst of our wondrous diversity, that we affirm this position.

When we say that all people people are welcome, we mean it.


Faithfully,

The Old Catholic Church of the Americas
