Missions for Adults

The Missioners of Christ offer a variety of adult mission experiences, from one week to two year commitments, at our permanent formation house in Comayagua, Honduras. Volunteers have an opportunity to participate in our work in communities throughout Honduras alongside our missionaries from all over North America. Our missions focus on evangelization and are centered in prayer. 

Short Term missions

The Missioners offers several opportunities for week long to ten day missions throughout the year. These missions allow participants to serve the people on Honduras with experienced Missioners from all over North America. Each mission is a little different, but our focus is on evangelization in the Catholic faith, prayer and offering hope to the people we meet. 

Longer Term Missions

For individuals who feel called to serve at our mission for an extended period of time, participating in our Foreign Mission Internships means joining our community of Hondurans and North Americans at the John Paul II Center for Evangelization in Comayagua, Honduras.

Life at the formation house consists of: 
- Formation in the Catholic faith 
- Living within an established, integrated Honduran and American lay Catholic community 
- Daily Mass, holy hour with Eucharistic Adoration and rosary 
- A focus on discipleship and evangelistic ministry for youth and families throughout mountain villages of Honduras
- Collaboration with local religious orders, including the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal and Missionaries of Charity

Summer Midterm Mission

Our summer term mission runs ten weeks, beginning with two weeks of language immersion. Summer term Missioners will participate in our ongoing local discipleship ministries, including work with local orphanages and religious orders, working with our sponsorship groups, and assisting with summer short-term missions as needed. 

Extended Term Missions

The Missioners offers a extended mission term of two years. The program provides missionaries an opportunity to live in community, seeking God's will for their lives as they develop deep and lasting relationships with the people they serve. Long term Missioners lead local discipleship ministries, work with our sponsorship groups, and run missions and retreats as part of the Missioners discipleship ministry throughout Honduras.

Hear from our Missionaries

Throughout the years, missionaries have come to serve with us in Honduras. Read personal stories from our current and former missionaries about life in our formation house, our ministries, and the work God has done in our hearts. 

Missions for Youth

The Missioners of Christ offers two youth missions a year, one to the Eastern Shore of Virginia and one at our permanent formation house in Comayagua, Honduras. Volunteers ages 16 and older can participate in these missions designed to deepen faith through prayer and service.
"Before leaving on the trip, I had a jaded view of what short term missions could be - other trips I had been on had a strong element of Christian tourism. During this trip, I felt like God was able to use me in ways he never has before. The life of prayer became so vital to our apostolic work and was the source of our life in Honduras. I felt like us going down there really made a difference." - CG
"I was so moved by the strong Catholic identity of this place, the people and the experiences. The community here is just so genuine. It is humbling to see the Lord’s love shine so bright. This experience has been a blessing in my life and has transformed me. Thank you!" - BB
