Our mission field is the kingdom of God and that has no boundaries.
Abbot Francis Pfanner
Pfanner Lay Mission Companions (PLMC) was established by the Congregation of the Mariannhill Missionaries (CMM) and the Missionary Sisters of the Precious Blood (CPS) in 1996.
PLMC is made up of dedicated women, men and/or families who :
have been called to follow Jesus through a commitment in another culture and/or country where they will create solidarity links and where they will help make the Kingdom of God more visible;
are sent elsewhere by their local Church to live an ecclesial experience and thus help to build bridges between the two Christian communities to which they belong;
are invited, when they return to their own culture/country, to keep their commitment by sharing their experience.
The challenge :
" Go therefore and make disciples of all nations ". (Mt 18, 19)
It is not possible to take on the role of volunteers onlyon the wings of enthusiasm. This service calls for the spirit of poverty, the ability to work without ostentation, discreet and cordial friendship, sacrifice, listening, sensitivity to cultural and spiritual values, discernment and the witness of a truly Christian life…
John Paul II
" You have redeemed us, O Lord, in your blood
out of every tribe and tongue and people and nations. "
Rev 5, 9-10
