Dear Fellow Missionary-Disciples,
Warm greetings!
October 2019 has been declared by Pope Francis as Extraordinary Missionary Month on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the promulgation of Pope Benedict XV’s Apostolic Letter Maximum Illud (November 30, 1919).
I am happy to inform you that a lot of solid and inspiring materials are available at the website http://www.october2019.va to help everyone prepare, celebrate, implement and live the Extraordinary Missionary Month — even beyond 2019.
One with you in renewing “Our Yes to Mission”, I remain
Sincerely yours,
