Under its original name of Holy Childhood, Mission Together has been active in Catholic schools for over a hundred and sixty years.
Mission Together
- Encourages children worldwide to pray and share, and become missionaries themselves;
- Supports both the spiritual and physical wellbeing of children. It does so through prayer and pastoral care. Through the financial contributions of children it carries out educational, medical and welfare projects in the poorest areas of the world;
- Benefits from the extensive network of the Church. Over generations it has helped to build the family of God and it continues to do so; is universal in character and attends to the needs of all without favouritism. It exemplifies the all-embracing nature of the Catholic Church.
