Saint Clare Pastoral Center was established in 2010 and is part of the Ecumenical Catholic Communion (ECC), the largest independent Catholic jurisdiction in the United States, and a member of the National Council of Churches. Our denomination traces its history through the European Old Catholic Churches which came together in opposition to the declaration of papal infallibility established by the First Vatican Council (1869-70). Our mission is to offer valid sacraments to all those seeking a faith community whose beliefs are grounded in the traditions of the early Christian church. Contact Info: Rev.
