Our community was established...
in October 1996 to meet the spiritual needs of Byzantine Catholics living in northern Montgomery County, southern Frederick County, and adjoining areas and to continue the movement toward Christian unity.
We celebrate our faith...
in a diverse community. We welcome all, regardless of ethnic or religious background who are committed to develop a deeper understanding of the Christian faith expressed in the Byzantine tradition and spirituality, and who wish to work towards the full communion of the Catholic and Orthodox Churches as sister Churches of the One Universal Church.
We root our faith...
in the Holy Scriptures, the Apostolic Tradition, and the Holy Tradition of the Byzantine Church. |
We profess our Christian faith...
in its universal dimension, in communion with our Holy Ecumenical Pontiff, the Pope of Rome.
We reach out...
to those in need, the lonely, the marginalized.
We care...
for and about all those in our community and all those who choose to join us in worshipping the Thrice-Blessed Trinity ...Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We continually resolve...
to gather in His Name, share the truth or our Faith, and proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ to everyone. |
