Our generous parishioners have contributed a total of $17,966.94 to the Mission Cooperation Plan as of August 14, 2023. Father John Bosco Ssekkoma representing the Archdiocese of Kampala made an appeal for the needs in rural Uganda at all Masses the weekend of July 29 & 30.
Each summer the Global Mission Office of the Archdiocese of Chicago facilitates the Mission Cooperation Plan, an opportunity for about 75 international missionary dioceses, religious congregations and organizations to share their stories and invite support from our faith communities.
This annual second collection provides vital support to ministries that witness and proclaim the love of Jesus in areas of the world affected by poverty and upheaval. Missionaries travel great distances to evangelize in remote and persecuted communities. They form priests and lay leaders, educate adults and children, offer medical care, provide safe homes, administer the Sacraments and more.
