Mission Sunday

A personal note:  It was on this Mission Sunday, July 9, 1995) that I was moved to "mission" in  Rwanda, perhaps the best thing I have ever done as a Marist Brother.  God will be the judge of that.)

We so often hear that we are all called to holiness and that we are all called to be missionaries, some, even to leave their own countries, that it either sinks and and we do something about it, or it goes in one ear and out the other, having no effect whatsoever.  But it bears repeating, for it is an undeniable fact. It is life-changing for us and for those to whom we "mission." as I so dramatically discovered 23 years ago and continue to see its results today, and continue to "mission" among all, especially high schoolers and young adults.
Bishop Robert Baron has some strong thoughts that mightily reinforce the above. Read them, reflect on them and act on them:
