The Splendour Project is a name that represents a collaborative effort among various apostolates and individuals. What brings these apostolates and individuals together is a common commitment to fulfil the evangelisation mandate of the Holy Catholic Church in a concerted way (ref. Canon 216, 1983 Code of Canon Law). We are not in any way a Public or a Private Association as defined by the Code of Canon Law.
