Christian communities
Learn from official sources, meet neighbors with charity, and explore the universal Catholic faith.
Catholic comes from the Greek καθολικός (katholikos): universal. As a Catholic ministry, the CCross professes the fullness of faith entrusted to the Church in Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the Magisterium. The Eucharist is the Source and Summit of the Catholic faith and of Christian life; the CCross professes the Catholic Church as Christ’s universal Church and the fullness toward which all Christianity is called. This directory is offered with clarity and respect: to help people find reliable official resources, understand one another more honestly, and pursue Truth with charity.
