WHO ARE WE:                                       

We are an Independent Old Catholic Heritage Church and postdenominational Fellowship (not Roman Catholic), Ecumenical/Interfaith home-based ministry going to peoples' homes according to Scriptures - the disciples went to peoples' homes to celebrate the Eucharist.   We are Inclusive and Non-judgemental and are affiliated with the United Catholic Church and part of the Old Catholic Church that broke away from Rome in 1870 over the Declaration of the Papal Infalibility.

MISSION:                                                    

To minister to those people who have been rejected by their churches because of divorce, sexual orientation, etc., and also to all those who are interested in having services or masses celebrated for them in their homes, or other places of choice.  We welcome all people irrespective of their Christian denominations.

PLACE OF WORSHIP:                  

Homes, Banquet Halls, Beaches, Graduation Halls, Gardens

If anyone is in need of our services, we will give them prompt and personal attention. 

FREE WILL DONATION:

We do not charge for any of our services provided to you.  Our policy is that you and the Holy Spirit (after praying) decide the amount to give to St. Joseph's Old Catholic Church.  Even if you can't afford anything, and you are in need of our services, we will not deny you.

DELEGATION:                                         

If, for one reason we are unable to celebrate the service or Mass 
because of distance reasons, we will delegate another minister 
recognized by the Independent Catholic Church jurisdiction.

 BAPTISM: 

Everyone has the right to be baptized.  If there is any adult or
child who has not been baptized or was denied Baptism by any Church, St. Joseph's Old Catholic Church will not deny you this sacrament, but welcome you with open arms into God's family.

MARRIAGE:  

Anyone who is divorced and wants to get married or wants to have 
marriage take place in a Banquet Hall, Garden, Beach or anywhere
of your choice, we are available to wed you.

HOLY COMMUNION:        

In short, the United Catholic Church is a bridge between Roman
Catholics and Protestants.  We offer Holy Communion to all baptized Christians.
