Mission Sun: Theme: To the Whole World
Mission is sharing. Christians are invited to support the work of missionaries in their efforts to bring the Gospel message of love to the whole world. People are asked to be as generous as possible in the Propagation of the Faith collection which will be sent in its entirety to a Young Church.

“What we do is less than a drop in the ocean;
But if it were missing, the ocean would lack something.”
(Mother Teresa)

A one-legged school teacher from Scotland came to J. Hudson Taylor to offer himself for service in China. “With only one leg, why do you think of going as a missionary?” Asked Taylor. “I do not see those with two legs going” replied George Scott. He was accepted.
