Walking Together to Build Stronger Communities

For over 200 years, the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate have been on the front lines of service, ensuring that no one faces hardship alone. Through faith, compassion, and action, they build communities where people are seen, valued, and supported.

This mission comes to life through initiatives like the youth ministry in Houston, where young people are discovering that faith is best lived through service. Led by Alfonso Lopez, they have transformed both their own lives and the lives of those in need—proving that when people come together with a shared purpose, communities flourish.

Missions That Change Lives

Eight years ago, this youth ministry set out on a mission trip to McAllen, Texas, where they volunteered at a migrant center, offering food, shelter, and care. They quickly realized that service is more than an act of kindness—it’s an act of faith.

Since then, these young leaders have responded to natural disasters, helped struggling families in New Orleans, and created spaces of healing and hope for those facing hardship. They didn’t just witness transformation—they became part of it.

Just like the Missionary Oblates, their mission is simple: walk alongside the vulnerable, strengthen communities, and ensure no one stands alone.

You Make This Possible

Missions and initiatives like this can’t happen without your support.

Without generosity, families would go without food, shelter, and medical care. Without compassion, young people searching for purpose wouldn’t have the opportunity to serve. Without action, communities in need wouldn’t find healing.

Your gift is more than a donation—it is an investment in hope, opportunity, and transformation.

Every dollar helps a child receive an education, a mother provide for her family, and a community rebuild.

For over two centuries, this mission has endured because of people like you—compassionate, generous, and ready to make a difference.
