Ratings DRAFT

These ratings are a draft for review. They are assessments based only on what this church and its denomination publish online, not official reviews or endorsements.

Gospel Clarity
2/5 · Weak
The OCIA section explains the Sacraments of Christian Initiation ('Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Eucharist') and how adults are prepared. That's one element (how a person responds). Who Jesus is, the need and what He has done aren't explained. A described OCIA course is a newcomer pathway, but one element plus a pathway is still 2 under the ChurchCompass rubric. (Rubric per ChurchCompass, 2026-10-17) source 1 · Church website
Elements found: 1 of 4 (how a person receives or responds); newcomer pathway: yes
