How is the shifting demographic of global Catholicism reshaping the missionary identity of the local Church? On Driving Home the Faith, host Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes Dr. Mike Gable, Director of the Office of Missions and the Pontifical Mission Society of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, to preview World Mission Sunday.
Dr. Gable shares historical insights on the Church’s missionary mandate—from St. Thomas the Apostle’s journey to India to Pope Pius XI establishing World Mission Sunday in 1926. He breaks down astonishing global statistics, noting how the Pontifical Mission Societies support 1,143 mission dioceses, 124,000 schools, and 26,000 healthcare and social institutions across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Dr. Gable also discusses the reverse-mission trend of priests from developing nations serving in U.S. parishes, and previews the special multicultural Mass celebrated by Archbishop Emeritus Dennis M. Schnurr at St. James of the Valley. Stream now to listen!
