Our Inspiration
Do not be afraid to go out on the streets and into public places, like the first Apostles who preached Christ and the Good News of salvation in the squares of cities, towns and villages. This is no time to be ashamed of the Gospel (Rom 1,16). It is the time to preach it from the rooftops (Mt 10,27).
Do not be afraid to break out of comfortable and routine modes of living, in order to take up the challenge of making Christ known in the modern “metropolis”. It is you who must “go out into the byroads” ( Mt 22,9) and invite everyone you meet to the banquet which God has prepared for his people. The Gospel must not be kept hidden because of fear or indifference.
-St John Paul II, Denver 1993

Our Mission
Mission Youth exists to engage young people, adults and families in spreading Christ’s love through local missions and abroad serving communities in their specific needs. We believe all Catholic Christians are called and capable of being missionaries through their baptism.
Our mission is to the people we serve, and also to the missionaries themselves as we form them to be apostles, accompanying them in the practice of the works of mercy which open the door to share God’s love & evangelize.

We Believe...
- That Jesus has called all Catholics to the missionary mandate, to go out & make disciples of all nations.
- Every Catholic is capable of being a missionary disciple, an apostle through their baptism.
- That the Regnum Christi charism is a gift for the Church & the world and that this apostolate showcases the charism.
- That evangelization happens through Christian witness, personal encounter, intercessory prayer and service to others.
- That unity, charity, community & collaboration as a spiritual family is essential to the fruitfulness of the apostolate.
- That the Catholic faith is retained & strengthened when it is articulated, lived and shared in community.
