Mission Statement:
The mission of the Wa-St. Bede Mission Partnership is to sustain a long-term relationship of respect and solidarity, characterized by mutuality and spirituality.
Vision Statement:
With a strong emphasis on the needs and value of youth, women, and cultural exchanges, the Wa-St. Bede Mission Partnership will build and foster a long-term, mutual relationship between the people of the Wa Diocese and the people of St. Bede the Venerable Community in the areas of spirituality, education, health services, and economic development.

each define our priority gifts and needs
form inspired teams focused around these priority areas

send members to visit each other
have regular communications occur between priority teams
Within five years:
priority programs will be firmly established and growing
the impact of the partnership will be measurable and substantial
