    Hi Rachel,

    We're on the "outside" of the Catholic Church to the extent that Rome has not yet formally recognized us. This may take quite some time. In the meantime, we're trying to be faithful to what the Lord has called us to and to be obedient to the leading of the Holy Spirit. We'll just have to watch and wait. You may find out more about us at www.communionofcorpuschristi.org.

    Blessings,
    Fr. James Hamrick+

    Hi Rachel,
    Good question--we're not Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox, however, our communion has petitioned the Vatican to be received into inter-communion with Rome. Whether that happens or not, we consider ourselves catholic in the sense that we acknowledge the universality of the Church, the seven Sacraments of the Church, and apostolicity of the Church (we have valid Apostolic Succession in the clergy through the National Catholic Apostolic Church of Brazil (formerly Roman Catholic). Our hope is to have inter-communion with Rome since we acknowledge the pope as the "first among equals" and the true Holy Father on earth (though we're not presently under his direct jurisdiction). I hope that helps (though it may have raised more questions).
