About the Mission
All Saints Anglo-Catholic Mission is an ecclesiastical mission that stands proudly within the independent sacramental movement, embracing a deep Anglo-Catholic identity rooted in tradition, ritual, and Catholic heritage.
Founded in 2016 by the Most Reverend Elena Maria Riz, the mission has grown steadily through years of prayer, reflection, and dedication, much like the saying "Rome was not built in a day." This journey has been one of spiritual commitment, focused on preserving and nurturing traditional and conservative values while offering a pastoral approach to today’s world.
​
At its core, All Saints Anglo-Catholic Mission seeks to maintain a vibrant Catholic identity that respects the sacred rites and rituals of the Church. The mission values self-reflection, discipline, and Christian piety, believing these elements are vital to deepening faith and devotion. While the mission cherishes traditional Anglo-Catholic liturgies and Catholic rituals, it equally emphasizes the importance of Christian knowledge, catechism, and sound doctrine for the faithful.
​
Currently, the mission is led solely by its founder, offering religious guidance, sacraments, and instruction to those seeking spiritual support. It is a place for believers to prepare for the eternal Church, providing a spiritual home for the faithful—beginning in their everyday lives and homes, extending to the greater community. All Saints has been established not to compete with other religious institutions, but to remain fully autonomous, focused on its own unique mission and identity.
​
Influenced by previous ecclesiastical work in Ireland and England, our Anglo-Catholic roots are deep and rich. We are committed to reviving lost traditions and providing a sanctuary where Christ’s presence can be experienced deeply and personally, fostering a connection to the Church that transcends time and place. Our mission is one of renewal, where the faithful can draw closer to the eternal Church through both sacred liturgy and a life of devotion.
