ABOUT US:
We pray five times a day for El Paso and the world, with additional special prayers for our Police.
We receive prayer requests via our web page, direct e-mail, and sometimes postal letters – asking prayers for those who are sick and suffering, have addictions, and need jobs, food, more income, or housing.
We observe a life of complete dedication to God in conjunction with the teachings of the Apostles as handed down to them by Jesus Christ.
The Friary holds to the teachings of the Traditional Christian Church established by Jesus Christ, as found in the pages of the New Testament more than 2,000 years ago. We have remained faithful to what was given to us by Jesus and His Apostles.
Our Order was established by Episcopal Decree
Our Lineage succeeds from Canonical Orthodox Christian Authority
Our Jurisdiction while “Catholic” is Autocephalous and NOT under the authority of Rome.
