Katholisch-Apostolische Kirche Europa

About Us – One Church United Throughout the World

The Catholic Apostolic Church Europe is part of a worldwide communion of Catholic Apostolic Churches that stand within the apostolic tradition and live the Gospel of Christ in different cultures and countries.

Our ecclesial family is present today on several continents. Communities and missions exist, among other places, in several European countries, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Chile.

In this worldwide communion we share the same apostolic succession, celebrate the sacraments in fidelity to ecclesial tradition, and commit ourselves to justice, charity, and service to the poor and those in need.

We recognize in the ancient Church of Antioch and in Patriarch Ignatius Aphrem II an important guardian of the apostolic tradition.

As a Church independent of Rome yet apostolically rooted, our liturgy brings together elements of Eastern and Western rites and draws upon the spiritual richness of the whole Church.

Our mission is to proclaim Christ, build communion, and become a blessing in all the countries in which we live.

May God accompany all those who are united with us on this journey of faith, in Europe and throughout the world.
