Prayer of the Missionary

The mission begins and ends with prayer because God Himself is the source and culmination of everything. The missionary must be a person of prayer, actively contemplative, striving to deepen their knowledge of Jesus, see, seek, and find God in all things. These are the prayer experiences of two of our brothers (Bank and Meti) who are becoming missionaries in Thailand.


The Xaverian Missionaries of the USA and the United Kingdom collaborated to unite religious and secular people in a unique dialogue and exchange. Since then, we have organized special conferences in Scotland (2013) and Rutgers University, New Jersey (2015). Shortly afterward, we began a Meetup for a monthly exchange of religious and secular friends, which has continued to the present. Join us for fascinating conversations about pressing issues and concerns we all share. Contact us here.

LISTENING TO THOSE WHO LEFT THE CATHOLIC CHURCH

In America the landscape of the Catholic Church is changing dramatically, as is all religious communities and institutions. The new mission of the Xaverian Missionaries seeks to engage with our Catholic tradition to all outside of the church, Christianity, and even religion itself. The departure of those formed in the Catholic faith is felt in every parish. Disaffiliated families make up the majority of Catholic communities throughout the country.

We listen to those who left the church and sacramental practice lovingly and empathetically. 
We root ourselves in these departure narratives, learning about their world and how they walk in it.
We gain deeper insight into the needs, longings, and desires of young people and others, and in dialogue with our tradition, we can change our pastoral maps and parish cultures, beginning in Catholic families.
