At Catalina, we have a vision for the kind of church we want to be.
A large part of what helps us focus on relationships and keep things simple is a clear set of values. These values drive the decisions we make, keep us focused, shape the culture of our church, and guide the way that we respond to life. At Catalina, we have a vision to grow by building relationships and simplifying busy lives with Christ. Throughout the journey, we constantly evaluate our decisions against the DNA God has given us as a church. We hope you share these values with us and join us on the journey.
