This weekend we will unite with the global Church in celebrating World Mission Sunday. This year’s
theme, chosen by Pope Francis, is rooted in the Gospel of Matthew: “Go and Invite Everyone to the
Banquet”, reflecting the inclusive and urgent call to bring God’s love to everyone. Your fervent prayers
and upcoming generosity in the collection for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith will bolster
the missionaries working in Africa, Asia, the Pacific Islands, and certain regions of Latin America and
Europe. An envelope is included in your October/November packet.
