Because of the various challenges facing the Church today the thought emerged of a website but more importantly  smartphone app  dedicated to presenting the basic values of the Catholic Church

About Us

Catholic Beliefs and Doctrines 1

The Catholic Religion was was established by the Apostles of Jesus Christ in the Mediterranean region during the first century  The word "Catholic" (which means "embracing" or "universal") was first used to refer to the early Christian church by the bishop and martyr Ignatius of Antioch in the 1st century.

There are 2.2 billion catholics in the world today 40% of whom live in Latin American countries.

 

We faithfully present the basic beliefs of the Catholic Religion using extensively the Catholic Catechism.

The Seven Sacraments

Sacraments are "powers that comes forth" from the Body of Christ, which is ever-living and life-giving. They are actions of the Holy Spirit at work in his Body, the Church. They are "the masterworks of God" in the new and everlasting covenant.

Other Virtues of Catholic Doctrine

The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines virtue as “a habitual and firm disposition to do the good.”

Holy Mass

Worship of the Eucharist. In the liturgy of the Mass we express our faith in the real presence of Christ under the species of bread and wine by, among other ways, genuflecting or bowing deeply as a sign of adoration of the Lord.

​

​Padre Pio said 

"If men only appreciated the value of a holy Mass they would need traffic officers at church doors every day to keep the crowds in order."

Mary in the Catholic Church

Catholics do accept and believe that the only way to salvation is through Jesus Christ.

 

However the Virgin Mary . . . is acknowledged and honoured as being truly the Mother of God and of the redeemer.... She is 'clearly the mother of the members of Christ' ... since she has by her charity joined in bringing about the birth of believers in the Church, who are members of its head." "Mary, Mother of Christ, Mother of the Church."

Catholic Prayer

Why and to whom do Catholics Pray?

Prayer is a form of communication, a way of talking to God or to the saints. Prayer may be formal or informal. While formal prayer is an important element of Christian worship, prayer itself is not synonymous with worship or adoration. However in praying, we strengthen that recognition of the presence of God, which draws us closer to Him. That is why the Church recommends that we pray frequently and make prayer an important part of our daily lives.
