Called to be the light of the world and salt of the earth,
those chosen by the Diocese of Stockton,
in a spirit of collaborative ministry,
engender the life and ministry of Jesus in the present day.
In recognition of this, the Diocese of Stockton
supports and enables through discernment and formation
these leaders to go forth
empowered through Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist
to do as Jesus mandates:
to preach the Gospel to the ends of the earth.
