VISION AND MISSION OF OLR:
Fruitful Disciples Proclaiming Freedom in Christ by engaging seekers, enlivening believers, and empowering disciples.
VISION STATEMENT: Fruitful Disciples Proclaiming Freedom in Christ
Our Lady of Ransom Catholic Church envisions a fruitful communion of missionary disciples who are both boldly living in the freeing power of the Gospel, and zealously proclaiming the life-giving ransom purchased by Jesus Christ.
MISSION STATEMENT: Engaging seekers, enlivening believers, and empowering disciples.
The mission of Our Lady of Ransom Catholic Church has been given to her by Jesus Christ: “Go make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit; teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” (Mt 28:19-20)
As the local manifestation in Niles, Illinois of the universal Church, we will serve this mission through ….
… engaging seekers by the works of mercy, proclaiming the Gospel, and inviting others to surrender their lives to Jesus Christ;
… enlivening believers with catechesis faithful to the Magisterium, formation in a life of prayer and virtue, and beautiful and sacred liturgical celebrations;
… empowering disciples to exercise their baptismal vocation by living from their charisms and engaging the world with a missionary spirit.
