Missionaries of Africa

The Missionaries of Africa, also known as the White Fathers, are a Catholic religious congregation founded in 1868 to serve African communities. They focus on evangelization, education, healthcare, and social development across Africa. Their members, often priests and brothers, work to promote Christian faith while respecting local cultures. The order emphasizes building relationships with local people and addressing their spiritual and practical needs. Their mission is rooted in a commitment to social justice, cultural sensitivity, and the belief that faith and community support can foster positive change in African societies.
