SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20th

EVERY YEAR, SOMETHING SPECIAL HAPPENS on the next-to-last Sunday of October.

WORLD MISSION SUNDAY joins all Catholics of the world into one community of faith. At Mass that Sunday, we recommit ourselves to our common vocation, through Baptism to be missionaries, through prayer, participation in the Eucharist, and by giving generously to the collection for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.

Pope Francis’ message for World Mission Sunday this year reflects on the theme: “Go and invite everyone to the banquet” (cf MT 22:9). He emphasizes, “Let us not forget that every Christian is called to take part in this universal mission by offering his or her own witness to the Gospel in every context, so that the whole Church can continually go forth with her Lord and Master to the “crossroads” of today’s world.”

Pope Francis concludes: "I take this opportunity to thank all those missionaries who, in response to Christ’s call, have left everything behind to go far from their homeland and bring the Good News to places where people have not yet received it,.”

Please join us on this special day by wearing your Mission shirts to Mass & sharing your testimony with our parish!

To evangelize is the very identity of the Church..”
