Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public beneft in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public beneft)	The main objective of the charity is to continue to practise and further advance the Roman Catholic religion of our intrusted parish communities, promote religious harmony and understanding of faith. In practice, “advancing the Roman Catholic religion” means that the Missionaries of La Salette follow the Catholic principles of supporting and assisting the whole community which they serve – including those of other faiths and none. This support and assistance take form across a number of activities, and has a positive impact on the public both in, and beyond, the Catholic community – including the education of children and young adults, care for the poor, visits to the sick and housebound and outreach to the marginalised .
	The charity provides priests to the six parishes, chaplaincy to fve hospitals, seven catholic schools and one prison. Chaplaincy is the provision of religious and pastoral services to people within local communities who may have specifc needs due to their state of life, who face unique challenges, or who are vulnerable and therefore require special accommodations to be made. Continued operation of individual chaplaincies refects not only the changing needs of people in their local communities, but also of contemporary society itself, particularly in relation to social integration and community cohesion. The charity is involved in chaplaincies connected with secular institutions, such as hospitals, prisons. However, for example the youth chaplaincy is responsible for nurturing the character of tomorrow’s adults, forming them into active, capable citizens with the confdence required to thrive in modern society. This responsibility grows in importance each and every year and requires constant focus on the needs of young people. The youth ministry has a paramount importance to the Missionaries of La Salette and is provided on the parish level as well as in the secondary schools connected with our parishes and beyond. Our priests provide pastoral provision for the needs of Polish communities in Brentwood and East Anglia diocese.

Section D Achievements and performance

Section D Achievements and performance

One of the principal activities within each parish is the Summary of the main celebration of Mass by the priests. Approximately 4500 Catholic achievements of the Christians in the parishes served by Missionaries of La Salette charity during the year attend this sacred liturgy every Sunday.

Due to Covid restrictions in the year 2021 the number of people attending church services and committee meetings have dropped significantly. We hope this is only temporary and we will be able to get pre-pandemics numbers in the very near future.

But we do more than just celebrate weekday and Sunday masses: our priests are keen to offer a range of services during the week and over the course of the year that our communities find both beneficial and spiritually fulfilling. For example, evening prayers of adoration provide a quite intimate and reflective environment for worship of God. Missionaries of La Salette are active leaders in their respective communities outreaching other denominations and faiths. We share our faith with our brothers and sisters from other faiths

The Charity supports various missionary activities run by Missionaries of La Salette in Ukraine and Madagascar.

We have held on-line spiritual renewal and retreats for Missionaries of La Salette in English District and provide support, encouragement and inspiration for new expressions of Catholic missionary outreach.
