 OUR
MISSION is to celebrate the Divine Liturgy, the seven sacraments and the
Rite of Healing in an atmosphere of community and fellowship that fosters
personal spiritual growth and physical healing. Our mission is
achieved when each of those with faith is filled with hope and a heightened
awareness of God's presence in her or his daily life. In practice, our
sacramental spirituality leads each of us toward more love of one another,
personal happiness and an inclination to practice ethical behavior.
God, through his Son, empowers each of us to realize more fully the healing
power of the Holy Spirit within us and to assist others with similar
achievement.

Pentecost –
The Coming of the Holy Spirit
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place.
And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind,
and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided
tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of
them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability.
