Ministry Statement
The ministry of LICCF is to live by the Spirit of Christ revealed in the gospels, nature, and the signs of the times. Our catholic liturgies are renewed through inclusive language, contemporary spiritual writers’ prayers and an open table Eucharist. We acknowledge Indigenous territory and Treaty promises as sacred and promote the expression of all people and cultures, regardless of religion, colour, gender, age and sexual orientation.
Buoyed by contemplative body practice, we move with compassionate action to alleviate injustice, poverty, and the climate/earth crisis. In short, we live the values of RCWP Canada:
