During the month of October 2019 and as part of the Extraordinary Mission Month declared by Pope Francis, Nancy Camilleri Missio Tfal Coordinator, visited several primary and secondary schools in Malta and Gozo. She connected with and encouraged students, educators and other people to share their personal #MyMission
On different occasions, participants also had the opportunity to pray and reflect on mission themed prayer spaces which were prepared and set up during various events. Below are some examples of people sharing their mission and praying on prayer spaces.

Two groups of Year 7’s and Year 8’s from St Clare College Secondary School, Pembroke participated in the #MyMission. Through a video clip which was shown to the students, they could witness the daily life of a little girl who lives in one of the missionary lands and the hardships she and other children like her face on a daily basis such as the impoverished homes and schools, food and dirty water. Students were also introduced to the mascot of the mission called Rafiki. This activity was organised by the College Youth Worker Ms Jane Meilak and LSE Mr Ishmael Sciberras.
