Company Description
Divine Word Missionaries Company Limited by Guarantee is a global Catholic missionary organisation rooted in the vision of its founder, Saint Arnold Janssen, to make Jesus known in every nation. Working among the poor and marginalised, the Society of the Divine Word (SVD) lives in remote communities, offering healing, hope and dignity through a wide‑range of ministries – from feeding the hungry and caring for the sick to fostering education, sheltering the homeless and providing spiritual formation and vocational training.
Their current focus includes a Student Housing Project that is transforming education in Mozambique, alongside programmes that invite supporters to deepen their spiritual life through almsgiving resources, monthly giving (the Vineyard), prayer and novena initiatives, and the offering of Masses for special intentions. Divine Word Missionaries also invest in the formation of future missionaries, with an average cost of $40,000 to educate and train each candidate, ensuring the next generation can continue the work worldwide.
With a presence in 79 countries, 5,641 missionaries and a heritage spanning 151 years, the organisation serves both the communities it reaches and a worldwide network of donors, prayer partners and volunteers who share its commitment to bring the love of Christ to those most in need.
