The AOCC is a denomination in the United States which follows the tradition of the Old Catholic Churches and follows in the succession of Archbishop Timetheos (The Most Rev. Joseph Rene Vilatte).
Almighty God, our diversity is your gift, and leads us to reach beyond ourselves to embrace people of every race, location, nation, ethnic and social background. Countless are those who have come to our doors with their hopes and dreams, seeking acceptance, welcome, safety, dignity and freedom to worship you. By your grace they continue to be invited and nourished by our community of faith. As an ecclesiastical family of service, prayer, and love, may we your clergy and religious, further grow in faith and always be a beacon of truth and openness to others. Amen. - The Most Rev. Joseph Raffaele, Archbishop
