Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

The Catholic Church is marking the 100th anniversary of World Mission Sunday. Established by Pope Pius XI in 1926, the day supports the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, one of the four Pontifical Mission Societies.

The Diocese of Green Bay includes collections for the Church in Latin America and the Church in Central and Eastern Europe through the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. These funds assist pastoral care, faith formation, and education in more than 1,130 mission dioceses.
