How is God calling you to become part of the mission to witness Christ’s light and love in the heart of Asia!

Less than 15% of the population in the regions we serve in Asia identify as Christian. Far fewer have an opportunity to actively grow in their faith, especially young adults. Many of those who are not Christian have never even heard of Jesus Christ. Today with your help, guided by the Holy Spirit, we are making a difference.

The St. Francis Xavier Lay Missionary Society is dedicated to the formation, sending, and support of Catholic lay missionaries to share the light and love of Jesus Christ with others in Asia — particularly young adults — through diverse ministries of evangelization, faith formation, and social justice.

Though He was in the form of God,
Jesus did not deem equality with God something to be grasped at. Rather, He emptied Himself,
taking the form of a slave,
being born in the likeness of men. 
And found human in appearance, He humbled himself,
becoming obedient to death,
even death on a cross! Because of this, God greatly exalted Him
and bestowed on Him the Name
that is above every name, So that at the name of Jesus
every knee should bend,
of those in heaven, on earth, and under the earth, and every tongue proclaim that JESUS CHRIST IS LORD!
to the glory of God the Father. - Philippians 2:6-11 #JesusChrist #cross #crucifixion #GoodFriday #Savior #salvation #Triduum #sacrifice #PaschalVictim #LambofGod #laymissionary

“Rabboni!” - John 20:11-18 May we embrace Christ our Savior and the witness He calls us to with the same love and devotion as St. Mary Magdalene, chosen by God to be the first evangelist. May her faithful example of detachment help guide us in our lives when our Lord seeks to prune us even of those good and precious things in our lives so as to lead us to greater holiness in accordance with with His loving plan of salvation. #marymagdalene #protoevangelist #detachment #gospel #easter #donotclingtome #lovedbychrist #daveayotte #evangelize #evangelist #femalesaint #laymissionary #rabboni #magdalene

“Oh God, who consecrated the abundant first fruits of the Roman Church by the blood of the Martyrs, grant, we pray, that with firm courage we may together draw strength from so great a struggle and ever rejoice at the triumph of faithful love.” Today, we all should follow the good examples of the First Martyrs of the Holy Roman Church, those who have defended their faith and committed themselves to the Lord in the face of suffering and persecutions. Let us all strive to be good examples and inspiration to one another through our life and actions, all throughout this life, now and always, evermore. All Ye Holy Martyrs, Pray For Us! #laymissionary #martyrs #saints #courage #spreadthegospel
