Catholic Mission is the Pope’s international mission agency in Australia and is part of the global network of Pontifical Mission Societies operating in over 160 countries. We partner with communities to help them flourish by supporting grassroots projects, including healthcare, education, and faith formation, while also being an active voice for human rights.
There are many ways to partner with Catholic Mission to create a more just world:
- World Mission Month: Each year, in October, join Catholic Mission in celebrating the work of Mission in Australia and around the world.
- Socktober: Socktober is a fun and educative celebration of World Mission Month for Australian children and youth. It is a comprehensive education, formation, and fundraising initiative that engages school communities and children in the global work of Mission.
- Staff Formation: Catholic Mission facilitates opportunities for staff across diocesan agencies, healthcare, aged care, education and ocial services to encounter God in the world and in their work.
- Student Formation: Catholic Mission facilitates experiential workshops and provides a range of interactive multimedia resources to educate students on issues of Mission and justice.
- Immersions: Catholic Mission offers immersion programs for both adults and senior secondary students, providing unique opportunities to engage with overseas and Indigenous Australian communities.
