URGENT MESSAGE FROM THE OFFICE OF THE PRIMATE
PRAYER FOR THE NATION AND PEOPLE OF HAITI
“…If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.” 2 Chronicles 7:14-15.
O God we pray;
For the unity of the country’s Christians, that they would come together to evangelize the nation in praise and worship.
O God, we pray that the Evil One who comes as a wolf in sheep's clothing, command him to leave this nation alone and stops taking advantage of their weakness.
O God, we pray you will give wisdom, humility, and patience so that others will see the Christian leaders and that they can draw other people around them to God.
O God, lead Haiti out of the unemployment and insecurity that oppresses your people.
O God, we pray that all the churches do not close their doors due to the problem of insecurity that afflicts Haiti.
O God, we pray for all the members of the local churches our own clergy and seminarians and their families who are going through great pain. They face a food crisis and daily insecurity. and many Churches cannot function properly because the gangs do not give them the freedom to do activities.
Blessed Mother of Hope who in the title of Our Lady of Haiti, intercede for your people of this chosen nation, that are crying and pleading for your mighty intercession. Amen.

Message from the Office of Communication
My brothers and sisters in Christ, I am sure some of you have noticed the translator tool on our website is gone. The Multi-Language tool used by Wix, our website developer, has some deficiencies that make it almost impossible to use. We apologize for the ongoing translation issues we have all mentioned on the website. Rest assured it was not our doing, but the fault of the Multi-Language tool. We have decided it is best to remove the tool until Wix can properly apply it to the website. For now, almost all web browsers have a translator built in to translate our website into your native language. Thank you everyone for your understanding!
-Reverend Fr. Gregg Drebenstedt, Director of Communications

COMMUNIQUE FROM THE OFFICE OF THE PRIMATE
Where The Truth Shall Set You Free
OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE CHURCH ON ASSOCIATIONS, COMMUNIONS, AND OTHER AFFILIATIONS WITH INDEPENDENT CATHOLIC CHURCHES.
We, the Bishops and clergy, of the National Catholic Apostolic Church in the United States (NCACUS), and its Territories declare that NCACUS, in accordance with our Canon Law, does not recognize as valid the Rites of Ordination performed by any other Church body that is outside Catholic and Orthodox Tradition and practice, and are not in the Apostolic Succession of San Carlos Duarte Costa. It is a well-known fact that many of these so-called "ordinations" have been administered by acts of "Simony" (a set fee for ordinations) in accordance with Holy Scripture, rendering these so-called perfidious ordinations INVALID.
The only Church bodies that NCACUS recognizes as valid are those in Communion with us, listed on our website. Let us together continue building up the Kingdom of God.
CONCERNING THOSE WHO LEAVE US AFTER ORDINATION
All those who have been ordained by NCACUS and have left the Church without permission from the Bishop(s), and/or have sought a pretend episcopal ordination and thus have broken their promise of obedience made at their ordination, are reduced to the lay state automatically, in accordance with Canon 126.6 of the Code of Canon Law of NCACUS.
