A Catholic world missionary organization which brings the message of the Gospel to the world especially the poor, the hungry and the afflicted.

The Society for the Propagation of the Faith assists each and every one of the Catholic Church's 1,200 mission dioceses to provide pastoral care and preach the Gospel effectively.

It was founded in Lyons, France, in 1822 by a young French woman, Pauline-Marie Jaricot. She began by persuading local working people to support overseas mission by giving a farthing a week. A century later, when the organisation was established in almost every country in the world, Pope Pius XI made it the official mission-funding society for the Catholic Church.
