The One
"The One" is our diocese’s bold commitment to renewing the Church by bringing every believer closer to Jesus Christ through transformative encounters and accompaniment.
Rooted in truth, beauty, and goodness, we will offer a number of different opportunities for all the faithful to encounter the Lord’s unconditional love, mercy and power.
We also, as a Diocese, offer different ways to accompany people in need and where they are at on
the journey of faith. Together, through prayer and action, we will build a vibrant, faithful, and transformative Catholic culture for generations to come.

Truth
The more we are formed in Christ and His Church’s teachings, the freer and more capable we become of loving through action, loving others as Christ loves them.

Beauty
As St. Thomas Aquinas taught, beauty pleases not only the senses but also the intellect, leading souls to contemplate the eternal and the sacred. In sacred art, music, and liturgy, beauty becomes a path to encountering God, stirring awe and wonder that lift the soul beyond the material world toward the infinite.

Goodness
When we embrace and live out goodness, we participate in God’s divine life, drawing others toward Him through love, mercy, and virtue. St. Thomas Aquinas defines love as
willing the good of the other.

Encounter
By meeting Christ in prayer, in the Church, and in acts of love and service, we come to know Him not as an idea, but as a living Person who calls us to deeper conversion and
mission – and deeper friendship with Him.

Accompaniment
Through the Church, the Sacraments, and our personal witness, we help others encounter Jesus by accompanying them, growing together in holiness and communion
with God.
