“All Churches, both young and old, are called to give and to receive in the context of the universal mission, and none should be closed to the needs of others,” (John Paul II, Redemptoris Missio). All church parishes in the Archdiocese of New Orleans participates in the Missionary Cooperative Plan which is three-fold: 1) to educate the people of the Archdiocese regarding the missionary work of Christ, 2) to solicit prayers and financial support for the missionaries and 3) to harmonize missionary efforts and guarantee a fair distribution of aid.
