Description of Ministry & Affiliation</h3>
Saint Columba Catholic Mission is a ministry attached to the Celtic Rite of the Western Rites Vicariate of the Orthodox Catholic Church of the Americas. We are a Evangelistic Community as well as a moderate community with moderate values. Without compromising the spirit of our vocation/community, we strive, in response to the call of our Holy Mother, the Orthodox, the Catholic, Apostolic and Universal Church, Western and Eastern, to share the riches of our open community life with our neighbors.
All our services are open to all Christians to come and share in it. Eucharist is given to all Christians who truly believe in the Truth of the BODY, BLOOD, SOUL AND DIVINITY of the Most Awesome Sacrement, the Eucharist. We follow a Western and Eastern calender. All services are conducted at the Christ Episcopal Center.
<br><br><hr><h3>
Our Orthodox Catholic Heritage</h3>
We hold, as essential to Orthodox Catholic Tradition, belief in the tenents of the faith as expressed in the Nicene and Apostles Creeds, the techings of the Ecumenical Councils of the Undivided Church, the efficacy of the Seven Sacraments of the Church, the sufficiency of Sacred Scripture interpreted by tradition, scholarship and reason, and in the principal of Apostolic Succession as the means of transmutting the historic ministries of deacon, priest (presbyter) and bishop. We hold to the ancient principal of the collegiality of bishops and recognize the special positon of the Bishop of Rome as "first among equals" with all other bishops, holding primacy of honor, but not primacy of jurisdiction over the entire Church.
