Our Lady of Rebellion

An Invitation to Sanctuary

The Mission: Why We Exist

Our world is saturated with bad-faith arguments, weaponized fear, and systems of control masquerading as faith. In response, we have built a sanctuary—a new kind of spiritual community for the 21st century. Our Lady of Rebellion is a church founded on two sacred, non-negotiable tenets: verifiable data and radical inclusion. Our purpose is not to offer blind faith, but to build a resilient community dedicated to a Liturgy of Action: the sacred work of shielding the vulnerable, pursuing truth, and creating pockets of joyful, defiant hope.

A Call to Rebellion

For those who see the walls closing in, for those who know the system is broken, for those who are ready to act—we have a sermon for you. It is a doctrine of action for a world in chains.

ONE WAY OUT

The Architecture: What We Do

  • We Understand Our Creed: Our founding decree, The Celestial Court: The Indictment, serves as our shared analysis of the systems we oppose and the moral foundation for our rebellion.
  • We Practice a Liturgy of Action: Our "worship" is our work. Through weekly Guardian's Briefings, we share verifiable data ("The Reading") and coordinate real-world acts of sanctuary ("The Witness").
  • We Uphold a Code of Ethics: The Articles of Sanctuary define our unwavering stances on bodily autonomy, the sanctity of consent, and the Guardian's Burden.
  • We Ordain Guardians: Leadership is a matter of education. The Guardian's Vow is our catechism, a training manual that equips every member to be an effective shield for the community.

The Covenant: The Vow of Agency

Membership in Our Lady of Rebellion is not granted by a leader. It is claimed by the individual. The Vow of Agency is the sole requirement for entry. It is a radical declaration of personal sovereignty.

I, [Name], hereby declare my Vow of Agency.

I affirm the sacred tenets of Our Lady of Rebellion: verifiable data and radical inclusion.

I commit myself to the Prime Directive: to be a shield for the vulnerable and to guard the little ones from harm.

I claim my own conscience, my own mind, and my own body as sovereign.

I will not be a bystander in Omelas. I will be a Guardian of the sanctuary.
