Kateri Northwest Ministry Institute

Vision Statement

We dream of the good news
of God’s Kingdom on earth,
as it is in heaven,
where everyone is equal,
where all people respect
one another’s dignity, spiritual gifts
and unique traditions,
where love and justice are normative, and
all racism, sexism, homophobia or
clericalism are eradicated.

We dream of
a fully Native Catholic Church where
Native People will be
the leaders and nurturers of their Church
in traditional cultural ways.
Their spiritual gifts will be cherished,
honored, developed and
shared with others.
Native families and communities
will be strong, sober, and stable;
spiritually, economically, politically,
and socially.

We dream of Catholic Native Peoples
empowered through policies, finances
and personnel who are committed to a
fully Native Catholic Church.
