The image depicts the Miracle of the great catch of Fish, as recounted in the Gospel of John 21:1-14. Overleaf, one finds a form to be duly filled in by anyone who enroll in this mission. The four Pontifical Mission Societies have the common aim of assisting the Holy Father by spreading missionary awareness among priests, religious, adults and children; encouraging aid to the poor, and gathering financial support for different projects in third world countries. The Pontifical Society of the Holy Childhood (Santa Infanzja) was founded in France in 1842 by Bishop Charles Forbin Janson to help children in mission lands, especially those in schools and orphanages. At the bottom of the page, one finds the address of the Missions Office in Malta.
