We are in the process of hiring a new Mission Education Manager for the Missionary Childhood Association in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Our new person, God willing will be a Missionary Sister from Tanzania. She will begin her new role in July 2026. As the MCA Mission Educator, she will work in collaboration with and support teachers, parents and catechists as they share the “Good News” and work of Missionaries in dioceses around the world with the young people of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. She is available to each of you to develop integrated programs to form your students as Missionary Disciples. Through easy-to-implement ideas that complement your existing catechetical program, Andrea will be able to support the Church’s Mission and yours to help students learn about their baptismal responsibility to evangelize, grow in understanding of the lives of children their age in the developing world and become active Missionary Disciples through their own witness, prayer and sacrifice.
MCA initiatives continue in the Archdiocese including the Religion Bee, Christmas Art Contest, visiting and presenting to schools, youth groups and PREP programs, as well developing some new ideas.
In the Interim, Michele Meiers, will be coordinating the Missionary Childhood Association for the Archdiocese.
