Our Mission

Catholic World Mission bridges the gap between donors and partners to uplift those in spiritual and material poverty.

You Make This Possible
Chicks for families 

Thanks to your continued selfless giving, Evangelizadores de Tiempo Completo (ETC) distributed chicks to families in Chiapas and Tabasco. The chicks are a future source of food and income for these families, which will give them stability and a better quality of life.

We can be with one another through the power of prayer. Every week we pray for your’s intentions.
