Our MissionOur Lord's commission is that we should proclaim the faith of the ancient church for our generation here in the heart of Owensboro and Western Kentucky, praying for and serving our neighbors, no matter what their church background may be.
The mission of the Church, then, is not that she should look like you. The mission of the Church is that you should look like Christ, to be conformed to his image! The public worship of God, therefore, is Godward in our union with Christ around the altar, "he in us and we in him." Every choice made during the liturgy, insofar as it does pertain to you—the hymns we sing, the Scripture we read, the psalm we chant, the homily preached—is for your spiritual formation. |
