World Mission Sunday is October 22nd
This year, in a series of catechesis, Pope Francis calls us to develop the passion for evangelization, which is a vital dimension for the Church!
The theme that has been chosen for the 97th World Mission Day (WMD), which will be celebrated on October 22, within the context of the Missionary Month is “Hearts on fire, feet on the move” (cf. Lk 24:13–35), inspired by the story of the disciples on the way to Emmaus.
World Mission Sunday joins all Catholics of the world in one family of faith.
That Sunday, we commit ourselves to our common vocation, through Baptism to be missionaries, through prayer, participation in the Eucharist, and by giving generously to the collection for the society for the propagation of the Faith.
