About Edmundite Missions


The Edmundite Missions serve God's people living in poverty in rural Alabama, a ministry based on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Edmundites have been serving the African-American poor of the Deep South since 1937.

The Edmundite Missions sponsor a wide range of outreach ministries, including food pantries and feeding programs, elder care, housing replacement and repair, learning and community centers, clothing thrift stores and emergency assistance. Edmundite priests serve parishes in Selma and New Orleans supported by the Missions.

Edmundite Missions also train and employ local people in its ministries and provide educational opportunities to children, teens and adults through its job training and scholarship programs.

The Missions are part of the Society of Saint Edmund, a Catholic order of priests and brothers, who seek to serve as Jesus did, and to make known His love for all by basing their lives on humility, service and love for the poor.
