Holy Week Missions
Every Mission Has A Story …
What is Mission Youth?
Mission Youth, an apostolate of Regnum Christi, is an organization formed by young people who unite forces to give the world a spark of hope by bringing human and Christian values into society. They put their leadership and faith at the service of others through missions for families and children in need, both spiritually and materially. One of their annual projects is Holy Week Missions. Mission Youth is hosting Holy Week Missions in Chicago, New York, Atlanta, Phoenix and Dallas. Missions will include training and missionary activity.
Our Goal
We want young people to embrace their mission as apostles and decide to invest a significant part of their time and effort in the work of evangelization for the salvation of souls. We want to be a support and serve local parishes and the Church through our evangelization missionary activity.
