In the Light of the Pentecost Retreat:
CALLED TO WITNESS
The Holy Spirit truly poured Himself out at our Pentecost Retreat.
We are taking orders for sacramental gift bags.
We would also appreciate retreat feedback.
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
THE MISSIONARY DAUGHTERS OF
MATER ECCLESIAE
Giving life to abandoned children, one child at a time
The Family Apostolate is partnering with the Missionary Daughters of Mater Ecclesiae in Nigeria because we believe that every person has infinite value and dignity as made in God's image. Our goal is to identify with the Mystical Body of Christ, to live out the Great Commission, "Go, make disciples of all nations." On the faces of these poor, hungry kids, we find Christ. We see in these orphans, the need to feed, clothe, and nourish the Body of Christ. We feel called to assist the sisters in their effort to bring the gospel values to God's littlest and most needy ones.
COMING SOON:
OUR SEMINARIAN PROJECT
God is still actively calling men to Himself through the ordained priesthood. There isn't a shortage of vocations, only a shortage of means to achieving it. The Seminarian Project is a program that assists Nigerian seminarians who can't afford their seminary expenses.
As a family-focused mission, the Family Apostolate fosters vocations to the priesthood through prayer, mentoring, and provisions of financial and material assistance for these men. Our Lord gave His disciples the Great Commission before He ascended into heaven, "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the very end of the age." The Family Apostolate strives to fulfill this Great Commission by supporting seminarians to the priesthood.
Please help us to accomplish this great task from the Most High Priest Himself. You can either make a donation or adopt a seminarian. Specific details to be unveiled in the near future.
