We are Baptized and Sent!

Next week is World Mission Sunday, in a special Extraordinary Missionary Month. We are called through our baptism to be part of the Church’s missionary efforts, through prayer, self-sacrifice and support of missionary vocations through material aid.

Remembering that we are baptized and sent as a Universal Church of Christ on mission in the world, we can…

  • PRAY for the Church’s worldwide missionary work
  • OFFER financial HELP and CHARITY through The Society for the Propagation of the Faith for vulnerable communities throughout Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Pacific Islands.

In solidarity with the Catholic faithful in the United States, each parish is encouraged to conduct a 2nd collection on all masses on October 20, 2019 (including anticipated Sunday masses). All collections will be remitted to the Society of the Propagation of the Faith.
