"We too are a Church that cares: There is no one in this world who is so poor that they cannot contribute. It is important because, for us, we see that our problem is not ours; we are sharing the pain for the whole world. The point of suffering is not localized in South Sudan or Sudan; it is a global issue. And as such, we must confront it from a global perspective."

Cardinal Stephen Ameyu Martin Mulla,

Archbishop of Juba, capital of South Sudan

You Too Can Be A Missionary

By Helping Missionaries Abroad.

Former U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See Jim Nicholson passionately reminds us that we are all called to this mission of love and faith, echoing the invitation to become fishers of men in a world that thirsts for the Good News.

He has supported The Pontifical Mission Societies in the U.S. for several years since Nicholson's path intertwined with the Church in mission territories.

"I believe we can have an impact, not only through leading by example but by stepping up, getting involved. We are called to spread the Gospel, like the disciples did. And we are called to help, educate, and evangelize, leading others to get to know, and love, the Church."
