Mission Sunday
October 20
This Sunday is Mission Sunday. On Mission Sunday, all Catholic Churches in the world take up a collection to support the work of the Church in places where the Gospel is not known or where the Church is new. This collection provides the basic subsidy for many mission dioceses where the Church accompanies people who are often very poor. Father Andre, a priest from a mission congregation, speak on behalf of Mission Sunday at all of our Masses.
