What is the Catholic Church?

Wang, Fr Stephen

An introduction to the world’s oldest institution founded by Jesus Christ

Many people are puzzled by the idea of the Church, and especially by the claims of the Catholic Church. This booklet shows the Catholic Church’s special place in God’s plan for humanity; how Jesus Christ founded his Church and guides it throughout history; how he is present with us, especially through the sacraments; and how he guides and teaches us through its official leaders. The Catholic Church is a home for all, for saints and for sinners, and only in this home can we discover all the gifts that Christ wants to share with us.

Fr Stephen Wang is a Catholic priest of the Diocese of Westminster. He teaches philosophy and theology at Allen Hall Seminary in London.
