Catholic Church úš the over "Mission Bunday." On that day special prayers are said for the spread of the Catholic Faith in the lands where it is litle known, and the people are asked to con- tribute something towards the sup- port of the Church in those regions. An Interesting fact about the ob- servance of this day is that in re- cent years it is celebrated with special keenness by the smal: Ca- tholic communities in actual mis- sionary lanes such as China. It is Sometimes suid
that newly-con-
verted people or pagan lands, who would be the most successfu apostles among their own people. are not in actual fact greatly, in- terested in missionary work. This is not the experience of Catholics, least of all in China. From very young Catholic communities in all parts of China there arise young men and women who are anxious to devote themselves to spreading the Gospel among their own people. and the sacrifices, made by poor Catholics to help the further spread
the Faith are often most re- markable. Last year an instance uccurred in a small village where there were forty Catholic families. As they were all poor, the mission- ary when speaking to them of Mis- sion Bunday never even suggested their part. any contribution on Later, however, one of their num- ber suggested to the others that they should fast and light no res on one day, so as to make an offer- the missions. They did ing for this, and many others have done the same.
MISSIONARY WORK The practice of contributing for the support of missions in distant new thing in the places is not a Catholic Church.
A century and a half after Christ, a" Greek writer. addressing the Romans. wrote: "From the earliest days of our re- ligion as been your habit to help by divers means all the brethren, and to send to the many Christian communities scattered among different cities the neces sitles of 'te. You have thus pro- vided for the needs of the poor and sent help to those condemned to labour in the nines."
Within the last century the na- sistance of missionary work has been organ'sed by a body called the "Society for the Propagation of the Faith," which is now established in every land. It owes its origin to a poor working girl, Pauline Jaricot,
tocre.
"I wear a white bonnet," she said, "and spend a sou a week to In fu- nave it washed and ironed. ture I shall wear a black one ond put the sou inte our fund."
The Society for Propagation of the Faith has now many millon members.
