Holy Week Missions Come Alive In Atlanta

Holy Week Missions are a wonderful time each year to be together as friends and families to share the love of Christ with others in the Atlanta area.  This year was no different as missionaries set out from 5 different mission sites to spread the Good News. Youth and adults worked together in a variety of ways to coordinate these great events that are such a focal point of the RC Movement.

The theme of  the Holy Week Missions this year was “Be Not Afraid” and local missionaries along with others across the world focused on this great message.  In Atlanta, missions took place at: Good Shepherd Family Missions, Mercy Missions Atlanta, St. Brendan Family Missions, Roswell Family Missions, and ECYD Youth Missions.  Activities included providing food and utility items to the homeless, seeking prayer intentions, manual labor in low-income communities, arts and crafts, and just spending time talking with the people encountered in the streets and neighborhoods. Missionaries also spent time together celebrating the Sacred Triduum with prayer, “live” Stations of the Cross, Adoration, and Mass.

It was another successful Holy Week in Atlanta and left the impression that we should always be focused on “missions” all year round and in our daily lives.  If you would like to find out more about local, national, or international missions, please visit the main Mission Youth website for details.  Also, stay updated with the monthly Atlanta missions sponsored by Mercy Missions Atlanta.
