The Ecumenical Free Catholic Communion
The Ecumenical Free Catholic Communion Less of an Institution ~ More of a Family A Christian People by the Grace of God An Emergent Church from Catholic Tradition A Contemporary Expression of Mindful Faith Lead with Love ~ Celebrate the Spirit ~ Engage the Mind ~ Cherish the Soul The Ecumenical Free Catholic Communion is a grouping/gathering/umbrella organization/friendly association/communion/family of ecclesiastical jurisdictions sometimes referred to as Old Catholic or Independent Catholic, led by validly consecrated bishops within the Apostolic Succession, all of which are completely autocephalous or self-governing. We have come together for purposes of unity, collegiality, friendship, comradery, fellowship, and support. We attempt to pool and share resources like a “clearinghouse” and are trying to gather particular benefits that can only be secured through being part of a larger group than any one of our associate member jurisdictions are by themselves. While we are a “church” in the spirit of “koinonia” or “community” spoken of in the New Testament, the EFCC is not an “individual independent church” unto itself with rigid dogma, doctrine, or authoritative national canons but rather it is a “community of communities” or a “family of families.” It is an umbrella organization created for the sole purpose of uniting various ecclesiastical jurisdictions within the autocephalous sacramental movement in the love of Christ, His Church, and the Sacraments.
