Key Ideas in Catholicism
The Church also does well in the missions that are available, whereby one contributes to making a difference, such as through the food that thanks the "haves" with nice fundraising fish tries and that works with the "have nots" through food pantries and soup kitchens.
The next-last paragraph above indicates that "The church is essentially a missionary church, whose mission stretches to the whole human race and will continue until the second coming of Christ.Mission does not just mean going abroad, for it can be anywhere. Currently I am chairman of my parish refugee project, using my experience as a chair to run meetings. This at the moment is what I can do for the refugees, that's part of my mission, just as gardening, writing articles and exam marking are. Maureen, my wife, wants to come in later to help the refugees with educational issues. This work will be her mission at the right time."
Might you still be chairing the parish refugee project and might your wife be concerned with educational issues?
