THE ARCHDIOCESE OF NEW YORK<br />

MISSION STATEMENT<br />

The beliefs and principles <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Catholic Faith serve as <strong>the</strong><br />

basis for <strong>the</strong> operation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Archdiocese <strong>of</strong> New York and its<br />

constituent members as expressed in <strong>the</strong> following mission<br />

statement.<br />

We, <strong>the</strong> Catholic People <strong>of</strong> God <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Archdiocese <strong>of</strong> New<br />

York have a mission, given by <strong>the</strong> Lord Himself, to live and<br />

proclaim His gospel message. This mission, entrusted by Jesus,<br />

calls us to be aware <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> local area and <strong>the</strong> world, <strong>the</strong> spiritual<br />

and <strong>the</strong> material, <strong>the</strong> present and <strong>the</strong> future. The same gospel<br />

that challenges us is also our consolation. The same Lord who<br />

commanded, “Go <strong>the</strong>refore and make disciples <strong>of</strong> all nations,”<br />

added, “I am with you always, until <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world.”<br />

(Mat<strong>the</strong>w 28:19-20)
