Missionaries

WE'RE ALL MISSIONARIES

Do you know the date of your baptism? Well, on that day, you became a missionary, called by our Lord to share your faith with those around you--and to be part of the church's mission to the world. Jesus himself directed his followers to go into the whole world and proclaim his Gospel--the "good news" of his love for us--to all peoples (see Mk 16:15). That mission is now directed to each one of us.

On World Mission Sunday, we have the opportunity to be part of the church's missionary work in Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Pacific Islands through our prayers and support offered to the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.
