An Anglican Community
Drawing the best from Catholic/Protestant worship
He is a good shepherd, He's laid down His life for His sheep so out of many nations He's gathered one fold and one faith. He has built His church on the rock foundation of faith, on apostles and prophets who shepherd the people in His place. There is one faith, one hope, and one baptism, one God and Father of all. There is one church, one body, one life in the Spirit, now given so freely to all. lyrics by John Michael Talbot, biased on Ephesians 4:4-6

The sun's light, that plays on the cedar-trees, plays on each tiny flower as if it were the only one in existence; and in the same way our Lord takes a special interest in each soul, as if there were no other like it.
St. Therese

One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house
of the LORD all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Psalm 27:3-5
We are a Christ-centered, Biblically based, evangelical, spiritually vibrant, culturally sensitive, loving and caring Church which desires to live out the faith that has been received and carried on by the Church throughout the centuries. Our belief is summed up in the historical statements such as the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed. We believe in the sacraments "A sacrament is a visible sign instituted by Christ to give grace to his people". We believe in Apostolic Succession by the laying on of hands through the power of the Holy Spirit to carry on the tradition of the Church.
We believe in the mystery of the presence of our Lord Jesus in the Holy Communion. The bread and wine become for us our spiritual food.
“Go therefore and make disciples of ALL NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you;
and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age.”
Mat.28:19-2
Jesus you are the lover of my soul and my heart burns with your holy love. Come now my love, my lovely one come near. Jesus you are loves pure light. You are the fire of passion that burns with holy fire, two hearts that become one like melting wax beneath an open flame. You melt our hearts uniting them as one. Jesus you are God’s consuming fire. You clothe me in white, drawing me near uniting our hearts as one. You are the lover of my soul. Archdeacon Joe Cordero

"There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men. Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines. The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink." Corinthians 12: 4-12

Come near my love, Spirit of the living God. Silent one, do not be shy. You who are the silhouette of Jesus gentle, and fragile and kind, do not hide. Come with arms open wide so that your shadow will fall upon us. Breath of God and light of Christ move like the wind that we might see your flight. I see you in the faces of the poor, and in the arms of a little child reaching out for someone to embrace. How beautiful are your hands oh Lord that touch our hearts and move our lives to serve you. You hold every soul in your heart and long to hold us with your loving embrace. Breath of God and light of Christ fall upon us. Archdeacon Joe Cordero
