MISSION SUNDAY COLLECTION Oct 22nd —reach out & spread the Joy
Today, Mission Sunday, Catholics all over the world have an opportunity to sow seeds of faith that are watered and nurtured throughout the year by World Missions Ireland, the Pope’s official charity for overseas mission. Through prayer and giving we can stand in solidarity with all our brothers and sisters overseas. Did you know that 40% of the Church around the world is missionary? That’s thousands of parishes which are too young or poor to support themselves. By sharing what we have with those in need we help build a worldwide Church which can reach out to people with the Gospel. Those who have never heard the message of Jesus are given the chance to experience the love of Christ and to know the support of our Church family. Today, on Mission Sunday, every person in every parish in every country where the Church is present, will be celebrating together and sharing what they have, no matter how little. It is the one Sunday in the year when Mass is celebrated exclusively for missionary activity.
