OUR CHURCH GROWTH: We are still growing and merging with other independent Churches around the world. Between 01 MAY 2012 through to 01 June 2012 we will be updating the web site.
OUR ARCHBISHOP: MEDICAL MISSION PROGRAMS: The focus of these medical missions are to assist hospitals and rehabilitation programs that are out of funding due to the financial crisis in Europe. Archbishop DeLeo will be commuting between New York, Florida and Europe over the next twelve months. Our prayers and blessings are with our Archbishop throughout his travels and endeavors.
MEDICAL DOCTORS AND NURSES NEEDED: We are looking to add more Medical Doctors to our World Health initiative "Doctors-On-Loan" ("DOL") and "Medical Missions of Mercy" ("MMOM") programs to serve the poor in India, Romania, Bangladesh, Moldova, Bulgaria, Guatemala, Ecuador, Nicaragua, El Salvador and Peru. For more information about our program, please click on Doctors-On-Loan.
NOW TRAINING & HIRING: RELIGIOUS WORKERS WORLDWIDE: The Church needs dedicated Christians to serve the Lord as Deacons, Priests and Nuns world-wide. We allow marriage and families. We have streamlined the educational Seminary process. These employment opportunities are open to citizens of the European Union Countries, Moldova, United States, Canada, India, Mexico, Central America and South America. For more information about our program, please click on Employment\Jobs.
MISSION PROJECTS UPDATE: Due to the global recession we have placed many programs on-hold in all countries temporarily, with the exception of medical emergencies (urgent care needed for people and urgent medical supplies needed by institutions).
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM: FOR REAL ESTATE & BUSINESS BROKERS!!! We do not ask the poor for donations. We do not want the last of their money like other churches around the world. To keep our Mission Programs going we purchase real estate and businesses with a strong potential for growth and use the income to pay for Mission Program operating expenses and hopefully can create more jobs. We are searching for businesses or business ideas with good income and strong growth potential anywhere in the world.

His Grace, Alfred DeLeo, OSB-OSF, Primate, Presiding Archbishop
WE ARE DEFINITELY A DIFFERENT CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Welcome to...
St. Francis of Assisi
Mission Church
- Cluj-Napoca Synod -
- United States Synod -
We are an independent Old Catholic Orthodox Church
governed in accordance with the Principles and Faith of the Ancient
Church which existed prior to the Great Schism of 1054 when Rome
separated from the Constantinople (Eastern Orthodox) Church.
We are a Catholic Church that practices all seven sacraments. We
offer several Mass programs in both English and Latin (based on both the
Roman Mass (Western Rite) and the Eastern Orthodox (eastern Rite). In
many foreign countries we offer the Mass in the Native Language, English and Latin.
Our beliefs and doctrine is all inclusive. As part of our Confession of
the Ancient Faith, our beliefs and doctrine includes and accepts The
Munich Statement of 1871, Declaration of Utrecht of 1889, and the
Statement of Faith of Archbishop Matthew of 1911.
We are in communion with Old Catholic Orthodox Bishops of the Western Rite;
the Christian Orthodox Catholic Church and the Old Catholic Orthodox Church;
Cluj-Napoca Synod. Many of these are small Mission Churches located
throughout the world.
We are a "Mission Church", working with other Catholic Churches and disenfranchised
Catholics to bring all Catholics together under a principle of unity. We do
not try to recruit other Catholics into our Church. If a Catholic has left the
Roman Catholic Church or another Catholic or Eastern Orthodox Church, we work to
get them back with their own Church. However, in all instances, our Church
still maintains our Church as an Independent Catholic Jurisdiction.

Our Archbishop is under valid Apostolic Succession, Sub Conditione, in the line of
Bishop Carlos Duarte Costa (1888-1961).
- We joyously and without condition, Love and Serve a Risen Christ.
- We believe in humble servitude in the service of God and His only begotten
Son, Jesus Christ, no matter what our condition or circumstances.
- We love, forgive, bless and pray for others unconditionally, as Jesus loved and did for
us, and forgave us of our sins,regardless if someone hurt us or did a wrong to us.
- God LOVES ALL OF US and ACCEPTS US for who we are.
- We love each person as an individual as God Loves us as His children, individually.
If you are a Catholic (whether Roman, Orthodox (Eastern\ Byzantine), Reformed,
Anglican, Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, or other Catholic) we encourage you
to participate in and support your Church, grow in the Holy Spirit, and encourage other
fellow Catholics to do the same.
However, if you are of the Catholic Faith or of the Protestant and Non-Denominational Faiths
and feel disenfranchised, discarded, and left out by your Church, YOU are welcome in our
Church.
Come as you are.
"But seek ye first, the
Kingdom of God and all His Righteousness, and ALL things will be added
unto you." St. Matthew 6:33
"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may
exalt you in due time: Cast all your cares upon Him, for he cares for
you." 1 St. Peter 5:6,7
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there
is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with
the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk
in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one
another, envying one another." Galatians 5:22 - 26
This is what God's Word
tells us!
Come. Find out how different we really are as a Catholic Church. Come
find out what God has to offer you through His Glorious Son, Jesus
Christ. YOUR LIFE WILL BE CHANGED - FOREVER!!! That's a Promise From
God!!!
Faith and Worship
