PARISH MISSIONARY THRUST

AND DIRECTION

Embracing the 4 Core Values of the Diocese: Hospitality, Collaboration, Faith-sharing, and Reconciliation, we, the faithful of St. James the Less Parish, are clothed by both the current challenges of the modern American society and the promising opportunities of grace and a renewed joyful missionary spirit, commit ourselves to constantly enhance our relationship with God through the joyful celebration of the sacraments and faithfulness to prayers and devotion. To be disciples of Christ in carrying out our mission to educate and evangelize, to help the poor and empower the powerless, to be responsible stewards of the material possessions entrusted to us, to defend and protect creation, of God’s plan inscribed in nature, of one another and of the environment. To live and promote the culture of life. To accompany the young in their pursuit of happiness and to defend the sanctity of married life and families as the domestic Church where vocation to the priesthood and religious life flourish.

THE MSPh is the Official Missionary arm of the Philippines Catholic Church founded in 1965 by the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) during the 4th centennial celebration of the Christianization of the Philippines when a Spanish-Mexican conquestador, Miguel Lopez de Legaspi, arrived in the archipelago in 1565 which started the official Christianization of the country.
