The PIME Missionaries are Catholic missionaries who devote their lives to providing the most vulnerable with physical and spiritual aid in 20 countries across the globe.


// KEY SERVICES PROVIDED

The PIME U.S. Mission Center, located in Farmington Hills, helps distant communities thanks to the assistance of supporters. Since 1947, PIME (Pontificium Institutum pro Missionibus Exteris — Latin for Pontifical Institute for Foreign Missions) has called metro Detroit its home in the United States.

The PIME U.S. Mission Center shares the transformative hope of Christ’s mercy at home and abroad through the PIME Mission Development Projects by providing sustainable aid; PIME events, which spread awareness on the needs of those in the missions; and the PIME Sponsorships at a Distance program, which gives an opportunity to make an impact by supporting physical rehabilitation for children with disabilities, education for kids living in desperate poverty, or housing for vulnerable children. Together, PIME and its supporters can share hope and bring opportunities to those who need them the most, now and for the future.
