October is Mission Month As we begin the month of October, we enter a special period of
reflection and action for our Church's missionary efforts worldwide. World Mission Sunday, which
will be celebrated on October 20th, is a vital time for all Catholics to support the spread of the
Gospel in mission territories. This year's theme, chosen by Pope Francis, is "Go and invite everyone
to the banquet" emphasizing our call to bring God's love and message to all corners of the world.
The contributions collected on World Mission Sunday are crucial for sustaining the Church's mission
in over 1,150 territories where the Church is still young or struggling. Historically, the Church in the
United States was once a beneficiary of these missionary efforts, and now we have the opportunity
to give back and support our brothers and sisters around the globe. Let us prepare our hearts and
minds to engage fully in this mission throughout the month.
