What We Believe

Our Marching Orders

Excerpted from: “The Affirmation of St. Louis, 1977”

“Let us hold that which has been believed everywhere, always and by all, for that is truly and properly Catholic.”

“The Church is the Body of Christ at work in the world. She is the society of the baptized called out from the world – in it, but not of it. As Jesus Christ’s faithful Bride, she is different from the world and must not be influenced by it. We repudiate all deviation of departure from the Faith, in whole or in part, and bear witness to these essential principles of evangelical Truth and apostolic Order:

The Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments and the authentic record of God’s revelation of Himself, His saving activity, and moral demands – a revelation valid for all men and all time;
The Nicene Creed, the authoritative summary of the chief articles of the Christian Faith, together with the Apostles’ Creed, and that known as the Creed of St. Athanasius are to be thoroughly received and believed in the sense they have had always in the Catholic Church;
The Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, the Holy Eucharist, Holy Matrimony, Holy Orders, Penance, and Unction of the Sick, as objective and effective signs of the continued presence and saving activity of Christ Jesus our Lord among His people and as His covenanted means for conveying His grace. [In particular, we affirm the necessity of Baptism and the Holy Eucharist (where they may be had) – Baptism as incorporating us into Christ (with its completion in Confirmation as the “seal of the Holy Spirit”), and the Eucharist as the sacrifice which unites us to the all‑sufficient Sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the Cross and the Sacrament in which He feeds us with His Body and Blood]; and
The Holy Orders of Bishops, Priests, and Deacons as the perpetuation of Christ’s gift of apostolic ministry to His Church, asserting the necessity of a Bishop of apostolic succession (or priest ordained by such) as the celebrant of the Eucharist – these Orders consisting exclusively of men in accordance with Christ’s will and institution (as evidenced by the Scriptures), and the universal practice of the Catholic Church.”
