Help sustain the ministry of the Church
The work of Old Catholic Churches International depends in part upon the generosity of those who believe in its mission and wish to strengthen its life in the world. Your support helps parishes, ministries, and outreach efforts continue serving the communities in which they are planted.
We know that times are hard for many people, and we do not take any act of generosity lightly. Every gift, whether large or small, becomes part of the Church’s witness through worship, pastoral care, evangelization, and service to those in need.
If you would like to help make visible the Kingdom of God through the ministry of OCCI, we invite you to support the Church’s work below.
Support for parishes and ministries
Gifts help the Church’s ministries and parishes continue their local work in the communities they serve.
Support for those in need
When possible, offerings also assist the Church in helping people facing hardship and need.
Support for the wider mission
Giving strengthens the broader mission of a catholic, welcoming, sacramental communion serving the least, the lost, and the forgotten.
Why your support matters
Old Catholic Churches International understands that generosity is never abstract. It is an offering made in trust, and it should serve real ministry. Support given to the Church helps sustain parish life, community presence, and works of care that continue the gospel in practical ways.
This mission includes an affirming, evangelical, and sacramental presence in the world. It includes ministry among the unchurched, the alienated, and the disenfranchised. It includes helping those who are less fortunate, including people who are homeless, mentally or physically ill, or struggling under many forms of hardship.
Giving therefore supports more than operations. It supports worship, mercy, pastoral care, and the Church’s visible witness in the world.
