“The collections of World Mission Sunday are entirely destined to the universal fund of solidarity that the Pontifical Society of the Propagation of the Faith then distributes in the Pope’s name for the needs of all the Church’s missions. It directly supports seminaries, future religious sisters, catechists, Catholic schools that provide essential education, and healthcare centers that provide essential care, embodying the love of Christ over 1,150 mission territories across Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Pacific Islands, and the Middle East.
I urge you, dear friends, to respond generously to this call. Let us unite in prayer for the success of the Church’s missionary activities and for the missionaries who dedicate their lives to spreading the Gospel.”
Robert Cardinal McElroy, Bishop of San Diego
