This August, Jesus Youth USA and Jesus Youth Canada participated in a two-week mission in Pukatawagan, Manitoba

The team of six from the USA received the blessing and encouragement of Archbishop Susai Jesu of the Archdiocese of Keewatin-Le-Pas and Archbishop Murray Chatlain of the Archdiocese of Winnipeg.

During these two weeks, the team was involved in faith formation, catechesis, and outreach initiatives, including accompanying families during funerals and the burial of their loved ones.

Let us continue to keep the people of Pukatawagan and the mission there in our prayers.

We invite you to read this beautiful article by Joshua Jacob, a Jesus Youth Fulltimer for 2025–26 who was stationed in Pukatawagan, sharing one of his previous mission experiences. The article was featured by Catholic Missions In Canada:
