Do you mean missions as in overseas?

I am not well versed in this however… you might try some of the following:
  1. Contact your vocations director in your diocese ask for suggestions.
  2. contact communities of religious that have members in the particular part of the world you might be interested in helping
  3. Each parish in the U.S. sponsors a specific mission overseas… you might see which one your parish sponsors.
  4. Try “googling” the following… " catholic volunteer missions"
  5. and finally try this site out also:
    uscatholicmission.org/go/laityandmission/cnvs*
I am sure others will chime in … I hope this gets the ball rolling…
Blessings of Peace and Good!
 
Mission work is definitely a calling! :yup: It was for me!
You may want to look into doing some long term volunteer service. If you want to do either USA or overseas volunteer you could look into CNVS (Catholic Network of Volunteer Services) their website is www.cnvs.org. They link into thousands of different groups all over the world. They also publish a booklet called Response. Many campus ministry groups have them. Good luck on your journey and God bless you!
