The Special Ministry
Department is pleased to announce a new program:
THE AGAPE
COMMUNITY PROJECT
The Reformed Catholic Church
has launched a new ministry entitled THE AGAPE COMMUNITY PROJECT (ACP).
This new ministry will reach out to the various ministries, programs,
missions, parishes and diocese of the church, seeking to ensure that each
RCC community is a welcoming community, inviting all people to share in
the sacraments of the church. The motto of the Agape Community Project
is: Caring, Compassion, Committed: ALL Are Welcome!
These are three very important qualities that makes our communities
successful in their outreach efforts.
The application can be
completed online and transmitted to the ACP Officer. Once the application
is received, the ACP Director will send you, FREE OF CHARGE,
a certificate of membership and good standing in the Program.
As clergy members of the Agape
Community, we simply affirm the following:
2. The Constitution of the RCC
3. The Canons of the RCC
4. Your vows of ordination
5. The eight essentials of the
RCC
6. Contribute to the National
Church
Importantly,
this is an RCC Ministry, and it is open to ALL RCC
communities, large and small, long existing or newly formed. There are no
lengthy applications or reviews, just the need for a commitment from you
to ensure that you make every effort to be a welcoming community.
This is a voluntary project
and
your participation is optional. It is not the purpose
or intention of the Agape Community Project to interfere with the local
parish/mission/ministry or the local diocesan bishop, but to offer
support when called upon. To terminate
participation in the ACP,
simply send a
letter of intent to the director.
