The Church is One There is but one spiritual Body, there is but one Head, Christ, Our Saviour and Redeemer, and we are nurtured and given life by the one Spirit of God.  There is one body and one Spirit, even as you are called in hope of your calling in one; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all. The Church is Holy Because she is sanctified by Jesus Christ through His Passion, Death and Resurrection, through His teaching, through His prayer, and through the Sacraments. In His prayer to God the Father for believers, Jesus Christ said: Sanctify them through Thy truth: Thy word is truth. And for their sakes I Sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth. The Church is Catholic Because she is not limited to time or space, race or creed, but contains true Christians everywhere, she is universal. The Apostle Paul says that in the Christian Church there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, barbarian nor Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. The Church is Apostolic Our Lines of Apostolic Succession emanate unbroken from Our Saviour, Jesus Christ, through Peter and his successors to the present day.  Through the laying on of hands, the anointing and the words of consecration, the Faith and Tradition, the Power and Authority - the Gifts of the Holy Spirit - have been passed on, uninterrupted to this Church. In His Divine Plan God The Father has desired and entrusted to our Church the means and gifts of bringing salvation to His people.  These gifts are the Seven Sacraments: Ø Baptism Ø Confirmation Ø Eucharist Ø Penance Ø Extreme Unction Ø Holy Orders Ø Matrimony. In His great Love and Mercy Our Father has given into our care the Scriptures, the Tradition of our Faith, the writings of the Fathers of the Church and the lives of the Saints: Ø To guide and teach His People Ø To strengthen and encourage them on their journey in Faith Ø To lead and prepare them for their Final Judgement As His servants to His Church, the Body of Christ, may we, The Traditional Catholic Church (British Isles), His unworthy Shepherds, instruct, guide, nurture and bring to salvation the souls of His people. "O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee"
