Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers Sponsor Contest to Win Mission Trip to Africa

Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers announce their second Explore My Mission contest. Catholic young people, ages 18 to 35, with a passion for living the Gospel by helping others can win an opportunity to experience another culture and live the world of mission in another country.

      Two grand prize winners will be awarded a two-week, short-term mission trip to Tanzania, East Africa. They will work along side the Maryknoll East Africa Mission Community in their service among the poor in rural and urban settings near Lake Victoria and will be accompanied by veteran Maryknoll missioners, Father Dennis Moorman and Brother Tim Raible, and other Maryknoll staff.

      “With last year’s contest winners, we had a wonderful experience of mission in Brazil and shared so much with the Brazilian people,” said Father Moorman. “I’m psyched for this year’s trip to East Africa! Tanzania is a great country with amazing people! We are going to have a fantastic experience of mission and learning with the Tanzanian people.”

Assignment: Create a video, three minutes or less, featuring you, the service or ministry with which you are involved, and the reason you would be a good choice for this mission project. Amateur videos are welcome.

Deadline: Video entries may be uploaded to the official contest website, www.ExploreMyMission.org, by April 9, 2010. Complete instructions are available at the website. Contest winners will be notified by May 18, 2010. Winners will be in Tanzania the first two weeks of July 2010.
