Catholic Mission began with the vision of one woman [VIDEO from Australia]

2022 is special year for us as it marks significant anniversaries in our history.

Two-hundred years ago, a young Frenchwoman, Pauline Jaricot, had the vision of an international network of prayer and support for the work of mission. From the commitment of this one woman, the global mission of the Church found sustenance and support.

In May 2022 Pauline Jaricot’s beatification will take place, a key milestone on the journey towards being recognised as a saint.

2022 marks also the 200th anniversary of the Foundation for the Society of the Propagation of the Faith, which in Australia is known as Catholic Mission.Today, a worldwide network of lay missionaries and church leaders are working together with communities most in need.
