About Us
The Old Catholic Archdiocese of the Holy Spirit is an Independent Old Catholic Church not affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church, yet it still celebrates the same sacraments.
We use the expression of "Orthodox Old Catholic" to describe our parishes, missions, and ministries as we strive to embrace fully the beliefs and teachings of the Undivided Church of the 1st millennia and specifically the beliefs of the Early Church. This means that we embrace the beliefs and theology as was practiced in the Western Church prior to the Great Schism - in short, for us to be "Orhodox Old Catholic" is to be Western in Rite (worship) and Orthodox in theology.
First and foremost we believe the Church should be a place of healing and comfort where seekers come to encounter Christ and as family in the apostles' teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread and the prayers. (Acts 2:42)
