Vocationist Missions Co-operators ‘The Vocationist Missions Co-operators are groups of lay people united by the purpose to promote and sustain, with prayer, sacrifice and donation, their commitment in favour of the Vocationist missions.
The Co-operators have a brief statute that spells out the three daily tasks: a prayer for vocations, a sacrifice in favour of the missions, and a donation or small offering, visible sign of love for the missions. They also promote and sustain the Vocationist Missions by promoting spiritual adoption, scholarships, bequests, enrolments in our perpetual holy masses and discernment in reading the signs of vocations in the youths for a vocational proposal.(cf. Acts of the 13th General Chapter, p.321ff.). Is it a pure coincidence that the expansion and great growth of our missions coincided with the foundation of the Vocationist Mission Co-operators?

The first group began to form at Pianura in May, 1984
around Sr. Anna Frieri and the first two lay persons Carmela Mele and
Maria Di Fusco who were enthused by the missionary ideal and by the
possibility of helping the work of Fr. Justin in the mission countries.
Fr. James Capraro erected the first formal group of Co-operators in
1990 when he was the Superior General, he also began to publish the
monthly pamphlet, ‘Il Cooperatore’.
