Begin Your Missionary Journey

01

Inquire

Begin your journey by reaching out to us. If you’re feeling called to learn more about becoming a missionary, we’d love to hear from you. Send an email to Clara@giftofmary.org to express your interest and ask any questions you may have. 

03

Come and Visit

After reviewing your application, we may invite you to visit Gift of Mary for a few days. This visit is an opportunity for you to experience our community life, engage in our daily prayers, and participate in service activities. You’ll meet current missionaries, share in our work, and get a feel for what life is like at Gift of Mary.

02

Apply

Once you’ve inquired and feel ready to take the next step, it’s time to apply. Our application form is designed to help us learn more about you, your faith journey, and your desire to serve. You’ll need to provide some basic information, along with a personal statement and references. 

04

Interview

Following your visit, we’ll arrange a formal interview. This is a time for deeper conversation about your experiences and expectations. We’ll discuss how you see yourself contributing to our mission and living out our pillars of prayer, service, and community. The interview helps both you and our team to ensure that you are well-prepared and committed to the missionary life. After the interview, we’ll prayerfully consider your application and follow up with the next steps.
