World Mission Sunday

Today (20 October 2019) the Church celebrates World Mission Sunday, an observance that is (in the words of Pope Saint John Paul II) "an important day in the life of the Church because it teaches how to give: as an offering made to God, in the Eucharistic celebration and for all the missions of the world." The theme of this year's observance is "Baptized and Sent: The Church of Christ on Mission in the World."
