The american apostolic old CATholic church
An Inclusive Catholic Church
Because God loves everyone. No exceptions.
We welcome…ALL PEOPLE. The mature and the young and the middle-of-the-road. Retired people and hired people. The out of work. The out of mind. The homeless, the shoeless, the wealthy, the clueless. Those who are strapped and those who break even. The classy, the classless, the classic, the classist. The empty of pocket, the empty of heart. The broken, the bitter, the everyday sinner.
We welcome…ALL PEOPLE. The straight and the gay. The bi, queer, transgender, CIS, nonbinary, all genders. The married, divorced, remarried, or single. The widowed, the widower, the seeking, the mingler. The one who has given up on romantic engagement. Those seeking to marry, those seeking to split. The mother of many. The family of two. Single mother or father. Single grandparent-parent.
We welcome…ALL PEOPLE. The red and the blue and the purple and white. All skin tones. All heritages. All ideas that burn bright. Those who speak English and all those who don't. Those who speak constantly. Those who just won't. The shy introvert or the boisterous host. The tree-hugging, protester or sign-waving activist. The independent homebody. The shy. The bystander.
We welcome… ALL PEOPLE. The foreigner. The immigrant. The refugee. The stranger. The outcast. The shunned. The ignored. The beggar. The homeless. The naked. The thirsty. The hungry. The First-Nations native. The Ellis Island descendant. The great-great grandfather. The loud, wailing infant. The inconsolable toddler. The quietly reading. Those paying attention. Those simply day-dreaming. The volunteering dynamo. The contemplative pew-sitter. The always-involved. The gossip. The singer. The mass-hopping, out-the-door rushing Catholic. The quiet, back-row-sitting, chest-beating sinner.
We welcome…ALL SINNERS--ALL PEOPLE. All nations. All tongues. All colors. All creeds. All ideologies. Your past doesn’t matter. Where you've been or what you've done. ALL sins are forgivable. It’s God who beckons you. We are only His ushers. The church is HIS house, and no one is barred. Come, enter His peace. Rest in His heart.

The AAOCC does not collect donations during Mass. Mass is a time for prayer and our hearts and minds and souls and bodies are the only offertory we want to exist during the Mass. However, we do pay rent for our mass space and we do have normal operating expenses. No one in the AAOCC receives a salary or a stipend for their ministry, including the Archbishop. In fact, it COSTS the Archbishop nearly $200 a month to run the church--in technology primarily (websites, webhosting, Zoom), but also in rent, insurance, assistance to clergy, necessaries for mass, licensing fees in Africa, etc. Even if it's $4 a month, we can stretch a dollar until it screams for mercy! So please consider assisting us with costs.
WE WELcome....YOU!.
