Catholic Extension: Leading Supporter of Missionary Work
in America

Many people don't realize that there is missionary work going on right here in America - in our own back yards! Catholic Extension is the leading supporter of that missionary work. In fact, almost every diocese in the United States has been touched in some way by Catholic Extension. Since 1905, more than $450 million has been distributed to dioceses to help them staff and operate their small, struggling parishes.
