WORLD MISSION SUNDAY

Next weekend, at His Holiness Pope Francis’ invitation, Catholics in parishes all over the world will be asked to contribute to a special collection for the Pontifical Mission Societies (PMS)—his official charity for overseas mission—during World Mission Sunday. For October this year, the Pope has asked us to place an extraordinary focus on mission, so Missio Scotland—the Scottish branch of the PMS—is following the Holy Father’s lead by showcasing some our extraordinary missionaries and the extraordinary work being undertaken in mission countries and territories throughout the world such as Sierra Leone. Our missionary priests and religious live out their mission and support our brothers and sisters in faith throughout the world. You too can show that ‘together we are mission’ and play your part in the life of the universal Church by supporting Missio Scotland, so please give generously.
