About us
Missioners of Christ is a Catholic Christian Community centered in prayer and united by covenant that evangelizes, disciples and sends forth youth and young adults on domestic and foreign missions to fulfill the Great Commission of Christ. Our “four pillars” shape the essence of our formation and spirituality; we are Eucharistic; understanding the Eucharist to be “the source and summit of Christian life” (CCC 1324), Charismatic; believing in and calling upon the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, which are “at the service of charity which builds up the Church” (CCC 2003), Marian; holding a special devotion to Our Lady, which is “intrinsic to Christian worship” (CCC 971), recognizing Mary as a “preeminent and… wholly unique member of the Church” (CCC 967), and Magisterial; being submitted to the teaching authority of the Catholic Church, whose “authority in this matter is exercised in the name of Jesus Christ” (CCC 85). Our Covenant defines our commitments to each other and collectively to God, in how we live out our daily experience as a Missioner. This Covenant serves as a general rule of life, which allows us to be in solidarity with the greater Missioner community, whether we are in proximity to other members or not. The Covenant also reinforces and emphasizes aspects of the Catholic Christian life which are already expectations of the Church for its faithful, such as frequenting the Sacraments, stewardship, prayer and fasting, and charity to one’s neighbor.

During this season of Lent, the scholarship kids went out with the missionaries to do home visits. Some of the kids read the Gospel of the Day, while others led the Divine Mercy Chaplet and prayed for the families. The purpose of these visits was for the kids to gain more confidence in sharing about Jesus and to learn the importance of visiting our brothers and sisters in Christ. See more about our scholarship program below. https://lnkd.in/e6sT2T6c

The Missioners of Christ in Honduras welcomed more than one hundred missionaries from the States to serve in the parish of Saint Anthony. These teams went out to twenty-two different mountain communities to love, serve, and bring the presence of Jesus. At the end of the mission season, the Missioners led a retreat for the leaders of the communities that our missionaries served. Many of the leaders spoke with gratitude about all the beautiful ways in which the Lord worked through the teams. The missionaries in Honduras will continue working in this parish by visiting approximately once a month and accompanying the leaders.
