Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus is the patroness of the Missions. M.O.S.T. is organized into parish “Circles” and monthly meetings are held for prayer and discussion of activities and events. It enables Catholics to live out more fully their baptismal commitment to make the message of Christ known to the ends of the earth. Members commit themselves to daily prayer for the missionary work of Christ through the Church. It assists developing countries in providing resources for native clergy, and men/women religious. It also aids needy parishes in the Archdiocese of New Orleans, which are considered missionary and enables them to develop more adequate catechetical programs.
