Woodcrest United Church of Christ

We are united by our Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI, the Bishop of Rome, who is the successor of St. Peter, the leader of the Apostles, and by our bishops, who are the successors of the Apostles. We are united across time with our ancestors in the faith, to the very first generation of disciples of Jesus Christ, in a process we call Sacred Tradition. The Catholic Church, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, has been the historical instrument that has preserved the Sacred Scriptures, the revelation of God to the Jewish people in the Old Testament and to Christians in the New Testament. We believe that The Church-that is, the kingdom of Christ already present in mystery-grows visibly through the power of God in the world, in the words of the Second Vatican Council. Although we are sinners, we fearlessly proclaim that Jesus Christ is the answer to every human question, and take heart in the example of the many holy men and women, people we call saints, whom God has chosen in every Christian age to serve as visible models of sanctity for us. This Church is open to men, women, and children of every culture, nationality, and race. Might you, too, be called at this time to come to the fullness of grace and peace of Christ that comes from God through his Church?
