World Mission Sunday, observed on October 20 this year, is a powerful reminder of our call to be
missionaries. The collection taken up on this day is unique as it is mandated by the Code of
Canon Law and is essential for the survival and growth of the Church in mission territories. These
funds support the pastoral and evangelizing work of the Church, including building
churches, providing healthcare and education and trainig future priests and religious. In
places where resources are scarce, your generosity makes a profound difference. As we reflect on
the theme "Go and invite everyone to the banquet," let us remember that our participation and
support invite countless souls to the feast of God's love.

While we are always ready to help someone find out more about the Catholic Church and/or be formed
in the Catholic tradition toward a possible commitment through sacraments and initiation, the Fall

501 209-2502 for more information. It is always hoped that we can do this in a group setting with
multiple inquirers, so please respond soon.
