The establishment of the Local Church has always been of primary concern for Maryknoll in Africa. Key to this task are primary evangelization, sacramental ministry, youth ministry, marriage encounter, spiritual direction, 
retreats, lay leadership development, catechist training, and small Christian communities. In the African milieu, these ministries are all found in the local Parishes. Find out more about The Parishes where Maryknollers have been active by clicking on their parish pastoral activities on the menu to the right side.
