Interested in joining us?

The first step on your journey is a simple visit. Stop by any Saturday, Sunday, or Wednesday for Holy Mass.

9am High Holy Mass on Sundays will expose you to the fullness of our communal life.

If that's a little uncomfortable for you, try Saturday at 5pm, Sunday at 11:30am or Wednesday at 6pm.

Father Andrew and Deacon Jim are always available for questions. If you feel like asking, please do. We will give you an honest answer.

After visiting with us for some time, you may feel inclined to join the parish and the PNCC. If you do, just let Fr. Andrew know. He will ask for some information and will submit your name to the Parish Committee for enrollment.

Don't feel like joining right now? That's perfectly ok. Jesus doesn't check membership cards at the door, nor do we.

Bishop Hodur said:

In the life of a free Christian the voice of conscience is important and is the only healthy standard of human actions. Our conscience, therefore, is our master, our judge and our chastiser. This voice cannot be muffled with impunity. Human conscience can only be influenced by good example, that means, that humanity should be educated in moral matters not by the threat of punishment in hell, not only anathemas or torture but only by the proper education of man. I strongly believe in Divine light, the light of man’s reason and the light of humanity. Therefore, if a man errs one should not cast him off, punish or maltreat him, but he should be helped in a brotherly way, instructed, inclined to improve himself and in the end gained for God’s cause. Let us remember to forgive one another, even our enemies...

The National Church does not recognize any anathemas. We are a group of free people and if, therefore, someone comes to know that our principles appeal to his soul, his education, and temperament, then we acknowledge him as our brother or our sister. In the same manner, if a person changes his conviction and leaves us, we do not condemn him because this is his free and Christian right. When new religious groups emerge, we do not curse them but acknowledge them as brothers. We, therefore, invite all the people of good will to our Church and if they do not come to our side, we will not degrade or ridicule them. We firmly believe that if not in this generation then in the next a large majority of the present Roman Church adherents will throw off the papal shackles and will secure for themselves truth and spiritual freedom. The National Church recognizes religious freedom on par with political freedom. We take cognizance of the fact that man’s conscience cannot be coerced.

We're not here to force, condemn, or coerce. We're here to love one another. You are always welcome.
