WHO WE ARE

The Comboni Missionaries of the Heart of Jesus are a non-stock non-profit religious Institute duly registered in the Philippines for the purpose of carrying out the evangelizing mission of the Catholic Church among those groups of people not yet or only inadequately evangelized through pastoral work, family apostolate and the education and assistance of the youth. This is done through the publication and distribution of a monthly magazine (in the Philippines World Mission Magazine) and undertaking activities aimed at uplifting the welfare of the poor, the marginalized and the underprivileged. At the same time, we form religious priests and brothers who will continue the Institute’s missionary apostolate in countries all over the world. Our website address is: http://worldmissionmagazine.com.
