Pope Leo XIV calls on every Catholic parish to take part in World Mission Sunday
October 19th
Mission Sunday takes place every year on the second last Sunday in October. This year's theme is 'Missionaries of Hope among the peoples'. In a video message, Pope Leo called on every Catholic parish to take part in Mission Sunday, saing, "When I served as a missionary priest and Bishop in Peru, I saw first-hand how the faith, the prayer and the generosity shown on World Mission Sunday can transform entire communities."
"Your prayers, your support will help spread the Gospel, provide for pastoral and catechetical programs, help to build new churches, and care for the health and educational needs of our brothers and sisters in mission territories." Pope Leo XIV
