MissioTfal Co-ordinator within Missio Malta, Ms Nancy Camilleri aims to spread the Word of God through missionary animation delivered to them which helps them develop as true missionary witnesses in their local community, schools, and groups they attend. MissioTfal represents the Pontifical Holy Childhood, which is one of the pillars of the Pontifical Mission Society under the responsibility of the Holy Father, Pope Francis.
MissioTfal promotes missionary consciousness among children in school, groups and at home through missionary animation and formation. MissioTfal sows the seed of altruism, gratitude, appreciation and belief in themselves that they are capable of helping other children in need. This help is done through prayer, learning the gospel and taking part in activities so that children in Malta experience their talents and share them for the good of others.
Through MissioTfal, children are given the opportunity to not only become exposed to the international cultures in developing countries but also given the opportunity to act and become protagonists of positive change to address the needs of other children.
Together with Rafiki, I attend schools, parish groups and other places to tell children about the missionary cultures and countries and combining their traditions with a craft that the children prepare themselves. In this way, they can learn about the backgrounds, traditions, values and needs of children even in their school and this can be a means of communication and harmony amongst themselves.

We believe in the potential of children and that by being inspired and with good formation can make a difference in the world, to be a light and hope to others less fortunate than them.
