Doing God’s Work in Mission Land, USA
Glenmary Home Missioners is a Catholic society of priests and brothers who, along with coworkers, are dedicated to establishing a Catholic presence in rural areas and small towns of the United States where the Catholic Church is not yet effectively present. Glenmary missioners strive to proclaim and witness to the Good News of Jesus Christ and the power of God's love, mercy and justice.
Over 100 mission communities—and countless outreach ministries—have been established by Glenmary missioners in the past 70 years. Today, we continue our apostolate, reaching out to serve the spiritual and material needs of those living in some of the most impoverished counties in the South and Appalachia.
