Our family is made up of every race.
We are young and old, rich and poor, men and women,
sinners and saints.
Our family has spanned the centuries and the globe.
With God’s grace, we started hospitals to care for the sick.
We established orphanages and help the poor.
We are the largest charitable organization on the planet,
bringing relief and comfort to those in need. We educate
more children than any other scholarly or religious institution.
We developed the scientific method and laws of evidence.
We founded the college system.
We defend the dignity of all human life, and uphold marriage
and family. Cities were named after our revered saints,
who navigated a sacred path before us. Guided by the Holy
Spirit, we compiled the Bible.
We are the Catholic Church, with over one billion in our
family sharing in the sacraments and fullness of Christian
faith. For centuries, we have prayed for you and our world,
every hour of every day, whenever we celebrate the Mass.
Jesus, Himself, laid the foundation for our faith. For over
2,000 years, we have had an unbroken line of shepherds
guiding the Catholic Church with love and truth, in a
confused and hurting world.
Ours is one family united in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
We are Catholic. Welcome home.
