Maryknoll Lay Missioners Mission Talks
Our upcoming church dates around the country
Through our “Mission Talks”, Maryknoll Lay Missioners—along with returned missioners and staff—travel across the country sharing inspiring stories of faith, service, and solidarity from communities around the world.
Our speakers bring to life the Gospel call to love and serve others, offering a personal glimpse into ministries of healthcare, education, pastoral care, sustainable development, and human rights in Africa, Asia, and the Americas.
Mission Talks are available for:
- Parish Masses
- Parish mission or retreat events
- Catholic schools or universities
- Prayer groups, book clubs, and social justice committees
- Any group interested in global mission and faith in action!
