Missionary Program

“It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire
to do something great with your lives,

the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be grounded down by mediocrity, 
the courage to commit yourselves humbly and patiently

to improving yourselves and society,
making the world more human and more fraternal.”
 
-St. John Paul II

WHAT WE DO

Under the impulse of the Holy Spirit and knowing that God has loved us first and sent us into the world, we strive to love him back by loving our neighbors and thus bring them closer to his Heart. We use each opportunity to meet others to transmit God's mercy and tenderness with our actions and words.
