Clare~Therese Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Recently I read an article about the state of the Church in a European country, which isn't doing very well, and I've been wondering: Are there any religious orders that do missionary work/evangelization in Europe? It seems like Europe needs a renewal of Christianity very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salveregina10 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 That is a great question! We are missionaries, started in Germany, and continuing to do offer missionary service to the Church and the world there in Europe. Our Sisters have been in Bulgaria for over 100 years, and we are very proud of the work they do for the poor. Here is the website for our Congregation, the - Missionary Benedictine Sisters of Tutzing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bardegaulois Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I recall reading about this initiative by Mgr Rey, Bishop of Toulon a while ago to bring young men from the Americas as missionaries for Europe. Sadly, the site seems to be down, but here's a little about it: http://rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-new-world-steps-forth-to-rescue-and.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because there's nothing about it on the website of the diocese of Fréjus-Toulon, and usually, the website is complete. Anyway, Mgr Rey have called a lot of foreign communities to evangelize. The diocese is very dynamic, there's a lot of ordinations (but not a lot of ordinations of french young men from Toulon... maybe in a few years) Anyway the little sisters of the lamb evangelize in Europe. Also, only some countries need renewal. Poland doen't need any help !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
