This coming weekend, October 20 - 21, we will celebrate World Mission Sunday 2018, when we are called to focus our attention on the needs of the Church in the developing world.  Following are excerpts from a letter by Bishop Vincent Nguyen, Auxiliary Bishop of Toronto and Bishop ponens with the Pontifical Mission Societies.  The letter, which was circulated by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, asks for our support for the World Mission Sunday collection.

“This year, World Mission Sunday recognizes the great importance of youth in the revitalization of our Church in the theme for this special Sunday:  With youth, we proclaim the Gospel to all.  Catholics everywhere are called to support the work being done by Christ’s representatives around the world.  Building schools and hospitals, bringing instruction to those thirsting for faith, and building and staffing institutions to train and support the growing number of catechists, seminarians, and novices are signs of our faith in action. Maintaining these good works requires our financial support. 

In his message for this year’s World Mission Sunday, Pope Francis says, “every man and woman is a mission.”  To be attracted and to be sent are two movements of the heart that “hold out promise for our future and give direction to our lives”.  The heart of the Church’s mission, the Pope continues, is the infectiousness of love, where joy and enthusiasm become the expression of a newfound meaning and fulfilment in life.

As we gather in prayer this October 21st, keep in mind that, like you, Catholics around the world are praying and contributing financially to the propagation of our faith.  It is our greatest moment of worldwide solidarity in the entire year.”
  
I encourage you to support this collection and continue to pray that all of us in this Archdiocese may be eager and effective witnesses of Jesus in our world, which is so in need of His love and peace.
