Pope Francis’ message for World Mission Sunday this year reflects on the theme: “We cannot but speak about what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:20). He reminds us that, “as Christians, we cannot keep the Lord to ourselves,” as we “recall with gratitude all those men and women who by their testimony of life help us to renew our baptismal commitment to be generous and joyful apostles of the Gospel.”
On World Mission Sunday, we join Pope Francis in supporting
his missions Together, through our prayers and financial support, we bring the
Lord’s mercy and concrete help to the most vulnerable communities in the Pope’s
missions.
In a world where so much divides us, World Mission Sunday
rejoices in our unity as missionaries by our Baptism, as it offers each one of
us an opportunity to support the life-giving presence of the Church among the
poor and marginalized in more than 1,111 mission dioceses. With grateful hearts
for our mission of solidarity we pray this Sunday.
