Canon 585

1. Each of the Churches sui iuris is to continually see that,

through suitably prepared preachers sent by the competent authority according to the norms of the common law, the Gospel is

preached in the whole world under the guidance of the Roman Pontiff. 2. The synod of bishops of the patriarchal Church or the

council of hierarchs is to establish a commission to foster a

more effective cooperation among all the eparchies in the missionary activity of the Church. 3. In the individual eparchies a

priest is to be designated to effectively promote endeavors on

behalf of the missions. 4. The Christian faithful are to promote among themselves and others knowledge and love for the missions, to pray for them, to inspire vocations and support them

generously with their own means.
