Thank you for your interest in the Mission Office of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. We enthusiastically embrace the challenge of our baptismal commitment to Jesus Christ, and are privileged to participate in His mission, embodied in the Church, to build unity among all peoples in the world. We hope you will join us in our work, through the many activities offered by the Mission Office. We invite you to contact us if you need any additional information.

Services Offered: The Mission Office is the local office of the Pontifical Mission Societies which support the 1,150 struggling mission diocese around the world. The Pontifical Mission Societies are:

         The Holy Childhood Association
         The Society of St. Peter the Apostle

Programs are offered to schools and churches to promote and educate concerning short and long term mission work/visits, twinning between parishes of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati and mission sites, and about mission/global solidarity efforts in general.
