IMO "mission statements" are, in general, hooey that often reads like either bad modern poetry or sound-good-means-nothing ad copy; and frequently more revealing for what they don't say than what they do.
When was the last time you read a Catholic organization or parish statement that acknowledged they even had a remote interest what these guys realize is their primary purpose as priests and Catholics?
Our fundamental mission:
To save the greatest number of souls
(Indeed, it is sometimes heart-rending, how few people believe souls are in need of saving... ya know, cuz, um... we're already saints.)
