A Mission Circle: What it is

The Mission Circles are organized groups of people, who as missionaries in their own parishes, in which the members, band together and follow a program of spiritual and material assistance to a missions foreign or domestic. “In this way the bond between communities will be made visible, and will provide mutual edification."

Mission Circles began in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles in 1956 under the leadership of Msgr. Anthony  Brouwers, director of the Mission Office of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles as a tool within parishes to educate and involve Catholic men and women and to stimulate, spiritualism, and systematize mission aid in a personal and concrete manner

The PURPOSE of the Mission Circles is threefold:

• Personal spiritual development

• Giving direct spiritual and material support to a missionary

• Creating, here at home, an interest in all things missionary
