Jesus passed the mission on to you.  

We can help you pass it on to others.

Through baptism, all Christians are called to participate in Christ's mission of bringing the Good News to all people.  Mission education is the process by which Christians become more aware of their role in the mission and are formed to carry out the mission.   For over 100 years, Maryknoll has been animating, encouraging and supporting Catholics in the U.S. to engage in mission.
