"Be Perfect, therefore, as your Heavenly Father is Perfect."
Gospel according to
Matthew 5:48
The North American Fellowship
of Cathars is patterned after the French association
with whom we are in accord. Understandably, our activities in
North America will initially be limited, particularly because
of our distance from Cathar country and the locations of the
many venues already planned by the society in France.
However, the North American
Fellowship of Cathars can serve us in many ways. Firstly, we
are, although working with and welcomed by our friends overseas,
an independent fellowship and can, therefore, develop activities
nationally and internationally to promote the goals of the Fellowship,
which are also the goals of our friends overseas. Secondly,
we have the opportunity to gather as English-speaking members
of a community interested in Cathar Christianity as a way of
life, and can continue in the way of our forebears as 21st century
Cathars. And thirdly, we will be able to maintain relations
and exchange information about participation in all those events
overseas as well as ours locally. Additionally, we are encouraged
to participate in the production of a multi-language journal,
Agora Néa.
Benvenguts!
