“Works of love begin at home,” Mother
Teresa once told the United Nations. The Regnum Christi
Mission Corps volunteers are missionaries ‘at home’ – evangelizing their
own peers and working in first world nations.
“While many missionary organizations focus their work in
areas of the world suffering from physical, medical, or financial
difficulties, RCMC strives to work effectively as a tool of
the New Evangelization in western nations suffering from the secularization
and demoralization of society and culture,” explains former RC Missionary
Chris O’Loughlin.
Regnum Christi Missionaries reach
out to their fellow young people through retreats, talks, youth
groups, urban missions, and much more. Recognizing the value of
the Regnum Christi Mission Corps as part of the New
Evangelization, Catholic World Mission has announced that it will

now be offering financial aid to young people who are
interested in the program.
“Catholic World Mission
has very successfully funded the work of missionaries around the
world, but we have not supported similar evangelizing efforts here
on our own soil,” says CWM Director Rick Medina. “Hence,
CWM is launching support for the Regnum Christi Mission Corps;
we are very proud to be supporting this initiative!”
Regnum Christi Missionaries are asked to provide
about $4,900 of the yearly cost of the program. CWM
would like to offset the cost for young men and
women who are interested in the program but need help
covering the expense. CWM has devoted a page on
their website to the RC Mission Corps; visit it if
you are interested in supporting these young missionaries!
