The Missionary Society of St. Columban is delighted to present the 2025 Society Annual Report, highlighting the work and witness of Columban missionaries around the world. Over the past year, our missionaries have continued to bring hope and hospitality to vulnerable migrants, offer education and support to those living in challenging circumstances, and continue in our protection and restoration of biodiversity and God’s creation.
Through these stories and many others, the report reflects how the dedication of our priests, lay missionaries, co-workers, and students channels the generosity of our supporters into meaningful action all over the world. On behalf of all those whose lives have been touched by your faithful support, we extend our heartfelt thanks.
May God bless you abundantly for your generosity.
Fr. Andrei Paz – Society Leader
The Society’s General Council is deeply grateful to Lay Missionary Jao Resari for the enormous amount of time and talent which she has invested in the compilation, design and layout of this report. They are also grateful for the contributions from all of our mission countries, who have helped in various ways to bring this project to completion.
