Volunteer with Missio
Join the Missio family!
We rely on our amazing volunteers to further our mission. We couldn’t do what we do without people like you.
Our volunteers bring the Missio family together, sharing the work of missionaries overseas, encouraging people to pray and fundraise, collecting Red Boxes and delivering our Mission Today magazine, or helping to build our online community.
Â
If you have a heart for mission, a bit of energy, and a few hours a week to spare, we’d love to hear from you!Â
Fired up but don't know where to start?
Don’t worry. Â We’ll give you all the training you need before you start, and keep supporting you throughout your volunteering journey. After all, when you join our team of volunteers, you become part of the worldwide Missio family – and that’s what families do!
Help us ignite God's love
There are lots of different ways to become involved as a volunteer, and you can choose depending on how much time you have and what your calling is. At every level, we will always support and guide you, and be there to answer any questions.
About Missio, Mill Hill and the APF
You may be more familiar with the names ‘Mill Hill’ and ‘APF’ than the name ‘Missio’, although if you have a Red Box you’ll know our logo. Here’s how it works:
Missio is the Pope’s worldwide charity for mission. There are Missio offices all over the world. As part of the Missio global family, we work anywhere the Church is poor, young or new to ignite God’s love, support missionaries, and build a strong and vibrant Church for tomorrow.  ‘APF’ stands for the Association for the Propagation of the Faith. It supports Priests and Sisters overseas and it’s one strand of what Missio does. The name ‘APF’ is used less frequently these days, but we haven’t changed the vital work we do.
In England and Wales, the Red Box is the collection for helping missionaries overseas.
Mill Hill Missionaries are an international community of missionaries founded in England. We work closely with Mill Hill Missionaries in England and Wales to support and further mission around the world, and Mill Hill is guaranteed a percentage of what we collect through the Red Box.
