Today, October 23,WORLD Mission Sunday is celebrated which is the day on which the entire universal Church prays for the evangelizing activity of the missionaries, and collaborates financially with them in their work, especially among the poorest and most needy.
The donations subsidize the support of the missionaries and their collaborators. Other special needs are also met: construction of churches and chapels, Christian formation, purchase of vehicles..., in addition to developing social, educational and health projects.
This year their motto is "GET OUT OF YOUR LAND"
"Go out... It is the invitation that Pope Francis makes to us to leave ourselves, our borders and our own comfort, to, as missionary disciples, put our own talents and our creativity, wisdom and experience at the service of others. It is an exit that implies a sending and a destination.
.. of your land" Mercy is the identity of God, the radiance of his omnipotence, which goes out of its way to offer us salvation. It is also the identity of the Church, a home where each person can feel welcomed, loved and encouraged to live the good life of the Gospel. And it is, therefore, the identity of the missionary, who accompanies with love and patience the integral growth of people, sharing their daily lives.
