Terms and Conditions of Our Church
Our church is an Old Catholic Church where sacred and valid rites are celebrated, performed by a priest properly trained in faith and tradition. In the case of the sacrament of Confirmation, it is administered by a prepared bishop, who ensures the correct transmission of this spiritual gift. It is important to note that our church does not belong to the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, maintaining its own identity within the Catholic tradition.
By attending our church, the faithful recognize and accept that this is a Catholic community deeply rooted in devotion and principles. All visitors and members of the community are expected to maintain a respectful attitude toward the sacred space, the ministers who guide the faith, and all attendees who participate in the spiritual life.
To preserve the solemn character of our celebrations, we encourage those present to act with reverence, honor the teachings of the Church, promote harmonious fellowship, and protect the dignity of worship. Faith is a sacred bond, and every person who crosses our doors contributes to the creation of a space for peace, prayer, and communion.
