OUR MISSION

CATHOLIC WORLD MISSION BRIDGES THE GAP BETWEEN DONORS AND PARTNERS TO UPLIFT THOSE IN SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL POVERTY.

Gospel of the Day

(Matthew 11:28-30) “Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

As Pope Leo XIV recently reminded us, the Church is called to be a ‘missionary Church, building bridges of faith and communion.’
