Today, Pope Leo XIV will lead a worldwide Rosary for peace from the Vatican Gardens — and he's inviting all of us to join him.

Each decade will be offered for those suffering the effects of war: victims, caregivers, prisoners, humanitarian workers, and all who long for lasting peace.

Shrines around the world will pray together at 7:00 pm Rome time (1:00 pm Eastern / 10:00 am Pacific) — from Fatima to Lourdes to Medjugorje.

Will you add your voice from wherever you are?

Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us. 🕊

She's visiting Mission Doctor Doris Weaver, NP, and Lay Mission Helper Karlee Duffey, RN — the first long-term lay missionaries from MDA and Lay Mission Helpers to serve at St. Anne's Hospital in the Diocese of Damongo.

Read about what Amie is hoping to experience, the site partners she's eagerly reuniting with after three years, and a little safari adventure on the horizon.

Join us today to pray and remember those who who died while serving.

Almighty God, on this Memorial Day, we remember with gratitude all those who served our country and made the ultimate sacrifice.
We especially hold in our hearts the brave men and women who served as medical professionals, tending to the wounded and sick in times of conflict.
May their compassion and dedication inspire us to continue the mission of healing.
Grant peace to those who have fallen, comfort to their families, and strength to those who carry on their legacy of service.
We pray in Jesus' name,
Amen.

Have you ever thought about the kind of impact your life could have — even after you're gone?

A gift to Mission Doctors through your will or trust is one of the most powerful ways to extend your faith and generosity into the future.

It doesn't affect your assets today. It can be changed at any time. And it means that doctors and nurses will keep crossing the world to bring healing to Christ's poor — in your name, in His.

We'd be honored to tell you more about our Legacy Society.

ICYMI: This weekend we reflected on what it means to be sent.

"Christ's presence in the world now works through human hands" — through the doctor who sits with a dying patient in a remote village, the clinician who crosses a river to reach a mother in danger.

That's the Mission Doctors story. It has been since 1959. Catch the full reflection at the link.
