​The Pontifical Mission Societies include:

• The Society for the Propagation of the Faith

• Missionary Childhood Association

• Society of Saint Peter the Apostle

• Missionary Union of Priests  and Religious

The Pontifcal Mission Societies have, as their primary purpose, the promotion of a universal missionary spirit -a spirit of prayer and sacrifice- among all baptized Catholics and to gather support for the worldwide mission of the church. Pope Francis appeals to all Catholics to support the official mission agencies of the Church –  the Pontifical Mission Societies – prayerfully and financially. Help us support missionaries in their vital work of solidarity with the poor and marginalized of the world.
