"I am confident of this, that the one who began a good work in you will continue to complete it until the day of Christ Jesus."— Philippians 1:6

A Catholic Legacy Giving

His name was Vincent. He was a schoolteacher in Belfast, through the years known as the Troubles, where violence against Catholics was a daily reality. He lived simply, saved carefully, and left no children. With his final act, he gave to Catholic World Mission — trusting that what he had gathered in a lifetime could protect Catholics being persecuted for their faith, in places he would never see.

Honoring these intentions, Vincent's legacy is helping to build a sanctuary for our brothers and sisters under fire in Nigeria.

St. Agnes Catholic Church is now taking shape, standing because a schoolteacher who had watched his faith threatened at home refused to let distance diminish his duty.

Vincent's offering went ahead of him, into a Kingdom already rising.

"For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be."— Matthew 6:21

CWM carries treasures like Vincent's forward. In Haiti, his treasure also continues — as an invigorated partnership with HaitiReach and St. Brendan the Navigator Parish in Cumming, Georgia, one of many communities of faith through which gifts like his continue to nourish.
