World Mission Sunday
World Mission Sunday offers you the chance to support missionaries and the Church in proclaiming the Gospel throughout the World, particularly where the Church is young or poor. This year, students from St Mungo’s Academy in Glasgow and Taylor High School in Motherwell were able to travel to Zambia wit Missio Scotland and witness not only the love and dedication provided by our priests and religious there, but also to see first-hand some of the fantastic projects that wouldn’t have been possible without the support of the Pontifical Mission Societies (PMS). Your donations and prayers make a vital difference to our work in mission countries and territories and are a concrete way in which you can support the Universal Church.
