A MISSION OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

Answer God's Call

A NEW WAY OF EXPERIENCING GOD EVERYDAY

Through baptism, Jesus calls on us all to be missioners.

He calls some of us to a uniquely enriching life overseas, serving God’s children in need as missionary priests and brothers.

Are you called to a life of mission, to live the sacraments and preach the gospel by feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and reaching out to outcasts?

A LIFE OF MISSION

Are you called to a life of mission, to live the sacraments and preaching the gospel by feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and reaching out to outcasts?

Maryknollers are Compassionate, Adventurous, Embrace Unknown Lands & Cultures, and Model the Mercy of Jesus.

Since 1911, Catholics in the US have responded to the worldwide cry of the poor by becoming Maryknoll Missioners. Today, Maryknollers help people overseas build communities of faith.

Some work in war zones with refugees, others minister to the sick, the elderly, orphans or people with AIDS. Through lives of service, Maryknollers translate the gospel of love into different languages and in different cultures.
