Introduction

In Fort portal Diocese, we have Pontifical Mission Societies consist of the societies for the Propagation of the Faith, the Pontifical Missionary Holy Childhood Association, the Pontifical Missionary Union and the Society of St. Peter the Apostle.

These societies have received their title “Pontifical” in 1922 to indicate their status as official instruments of the Holy Father and of the universal Roman Catholic Church.

The pontifical Mission Societies have, as their primary purpose, the promotion of a universal missionary Spirit, a spirit of prayer and sacrifice among all baptized Catholics.

The main goal is to foster proclamation of the Gospel to the ends of the Earth as our Lord’s command in Matthew (20:19-20).

These societies are the principal Organizations for Missionary Animation and cooperation in the Catholic Church under the direction of the Pope.
