VISION:

            In response to the graces, needs and challenges of the present times, and inflamed by a living faith in God of history, We – the People of God of the Diocese of Kalookan, a Pilgrim Church guided by the Holy Spirit – envision ourselves to become a community of Disciples closely configured into Christ, deeply related to one another and seeking to be in communion with others, especially the Poor, as shown by the example of Mary, in order to realize the Kingdom of God, where the Human Person is liberated, Filipino Culture is valued and our Natural Resources are protected.

 

MISSION:

            We pledge ourselves to share in the mission of Christ: to spread the Word of God, to unite ourselves with and in behalf of the People of God, to strengthen the Family, to educate the Youth, to empower the Poor and the Powerless, to promote Filipino Culture and to protect the Environment – so that we can form and build Basic Ecclesial Communities that worship in unity and are centered in the Eucharist towards the transformation of our Society.
