Vision |
We envision ourselves as a community of disciples centered on Christ, animated by the Holy Spirit and guided by Mary, our Mother and model:
- Where every Christian is an evangelized evangelizer;
- Where the family as a domestic Church, serves as the foundation and agent of conversion, formation and renewal;
- Where all, particularly the poor, shall be strengthened by a unifying compassion and empowered in a liberating justice;
- Where we may all, as one body, build together a life integrated in our faith, founded on love, solidarity, righteousness and peace;
- Where every Christian as a steward of our natural resources, is duty-bound to protect, conserve and promote the integrity of creation for the present and future generation.
|
Mission |
- Blessed with God’s gift of wisdom and fortitude and with our profound commitment to our vocation, we shall endeavor to attain this VISION by involving ourselves in an integral, continuing formation, leading to life of loving affirmation and faithful witnessing as individual, families and communities.
- With steadfast spirit, and sharing in equal dignity, mission and responsibility with our clergy and religious, we shall actively participate in the task of building Basic Eclessial Communities, and engaging in vigorous and uncompromising implementation of the Acts and Decrees of the 2nd Plenary Council of the Philippines and the 1st Vicarial Pastoral Assembly of Palawan.
