Maryknoll Fathers & Brothers - Mission in Africa

The Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America, popularly known as the Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers , has worked in Africa since 1946. These missionaries are Catholic Priests and Brothers from the United States of America, who in response to their own Christian faith, have committed themselves to lifelong service to mission outside of their home nation. Originally directed to share the Good News of Salvation with the peoples of Tanzania and Kenya, Maryknoll's missionary endeavors in Africa now extend to five countries.

Through these pages, we welcome you to visit Maryknoll's Africa Regionn and invite you to join our journey..
