Changing lives in the Diocese of Faisalabad, Pakistan – Catholic Mission Outreach

Your selfless giving has changed the lives of many in the Diocese of Faisalabad, Pakistan! Through our Catholic Mission Outreach program, we have provided food support to the poor and victimized families of Jaranwala in Pakistan.

The Diocese of Faisalabad was a 2022-2023 Grant Award Recipient of Catholic Mission Outreach. In November 2024, we received an update from the Diocese of Faisalabad, discussing the tangible impact of your generosity to Catholic Mission Outreach.

What is Catholic Mission Outreach?

Catholic Mission Outreach (CMO) is the international outreach program of the Archdiocese of Atlanta that supports the work of evangelization and serves the needs of the poor throughout the Catholic Church worldwide. It is funded primarily through second collections in parishes as well as direct donations to the CMO fund.

How Your Generosity Made a Difference

Food distributions have helped marginalized communities who have suffered from losing their houses and personal belongings during mob attacks. These attacks left the good people of Jaranwala with a lack of food stability and hungry. Your support has given the Diocese of Faisalabad the resources to distribute nourishing food to these victims and alleviate their suffering.

Bishop Dr. Indrias Rehmat graciously thanks the Archdiocese of Atlanta for our support of the Diocese of Faisalabad and how we have blessed their people:

“…all the support has been possible through friends from [Archdiocese of Atlanta] who showed great concern and cooperated with us to uplift the victimized of Jaranwala. …our friends have played the role of ‘Good Samaritan’ and in every age, there is a need for such good Samaritans who help the helpless, ignored, and injured.

I also extend special thanks to Mr. Nobert Mendes, Donald Sequeira, Deacon Rick Medina, and Fr. Gaurv Sharoff from Atlanta who made it possible to share the blessings of food.”

– Bishop Dr. Indrias Rehmat, Diocese of Faisalabad

The victims in Jaranwala are abundantly thankful for your kindness during this difficult and life-threatening time. You delivered food to starving individuals and fulfilled the corporal works of mercy by providing charity and helping the helpless with dignity when it was needed most.
