that the task of all PMS Directors in the country is to cultivate a missionary
conscience of God’s people in all the dioceses.
Fr. Mulandu who further noted article 55 of the PMS statutes,
explained that the meeting was being conducted to promote close collaboration
of the missionary work throughout the dioceses in Zambia, to determine the
topic and strategize for the annual missionary campaign and program for the
activities of the societies, which include both animation and fundraising.

administration of the National and Diocesan PMS offices. PMS National Council
