Birmingham Diocesan Watch Mission Statement

We, the concerned Catholics and friends of the Catholic Diocese of Birmingham, dedicate ourselves to promoting the full teachings of the Catholic Church in theory and practice. In keeping with the directives of our Bishop Steven Raica, who implored the members of the diocese to “partner”* with him, with transparency and accountability, we are dedicated to supporting its Bishop, its priests, and the faithful laity.

St. Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O prince of the heavenly host, by the divine power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.
