The Story of E.T. and a Mission Built on Faith, Redemption, and Service

El Compás Católico recently shared the story of Eric “E.T.” Tafoya, founder of Traditional Urban Catholic, and the mission growing through his life, faith, and service in San Bernardino.

Born from E.T.’s own story of conversion and redemption, TUC7 brings the Gospel directly to the places many people overlook — the streets, parks, detention centers, and spaces of reentry. Through prayer, food, clothing, encouragement, and brotherhood, the ministry reminds people facing homelessness, addiction, violence, and hardship that they are seen, valued, and not forgotten.
