The Far East magazine offers a unique insight into the mission work of the Columbans around the world, highlighting our collective call through baptism, to be God’s missionaries. Packed full of news, stories, reflections and photographs, readers of the Far East will gain a deeper understanding of the diverse cultures, religions, and the impact of global economics and environmental degradation on the communities we serve.

While many stories reveal the harsh realities of poverty, exploitation, and injustice that plague humanity, they also shine a light on the unwavering solidarity of Columban missionaries. Together with local communities, they work to improve social, economic, and spiritual lives, guided always by the teachings of Jesus Christ.

“I grew up reading my parent’s copy of the Far East and I am now a subscriber of the magazine myself! I enjoy learning more about various Columban Mission programmes around the world and seeing how donations made to the Columbans are being used to support those less fortunate than ourselves.”
