The Missionaries of Charity of Mother Teresa arrived in the archdiocese in 1980 to care for the "poorest of the poor" in Miami's inner city. They currently operate a shelter for homeless women and children near Jackson Memorial Hospital.
The Mission Cooperative Plan of the Archdiocese of Miami is a program in which missionary dioceses, religious congregations and lay mission groups are invited to send representatives to preach at the weekend Masses in our parishes.
The program helps to raise awareness in our community of the richness of missionary work across the world, and inspires us all to live the missionary call in our daily lives. The offerings collected in each parish during these Mission Cooperative Plan weekends are sent to the mission organizations represented by these visiting missionaries.

The Mission Network of the Archdiocese of Miami is an association of missionary organizations, parishes, groups, and individuals united in a common vision to support each other in responding to our baptismal call to mission. We seek to promote mission by sharing resources, missionary experiences and activities, formation, and advocacy for justice and peace.
The goal of the Mission Office is to promote awareness and enthusiasm for our common call to mission, and to be a bridge of support for missionaries and missionary activities locally and throughout the world.
The office brings together the Summer Missionary Cooperative Plan, the work of the Propagation of the Faith in the annual World Mission Sunday celebration and the Mission Network of the Archdiocese of Miami, an association that gathers mission groups and parish representatives to grow in missionary understanding.
