The Story of a MissionIn 1979 Mario Cappello had a life-transforming spiritual experience with Youth With a Mission in

Lausanne, Switzerland, where he clearly realized that God was leading him to establish an international Schoof Mission to train Catholics into effective evangelizers. The first School of Evangelization was held in MaltaJanuary 1985, and from this, The Institute for World Evangelization - ICPE Mission, was founded by Mario ahis wife Anna.

In 1986 the Mission's vision was presented to The Holy Father, Pope John Paul II, during a private din

ner with the ICPE Mission‟s founders Mario and Anna Cappello at his summer residence in Castel GandolfoHe affirmed the ICPE Mission and bestowed his personal support and encouragement upon it. The Cappellodeparted, secure in continuing the mission that Christ had placed on their hearts. A second School of Missiowas held in Rome that year, from which 12 participants became committed lay missionaries. The ICPE Missbecame an international Catholic community of lay people through these original 12 members. They camefrom Mexico, South Korea, the United States, Holland, Malta, Germany, and New Zealand, and resided as acommunity in Malta. The ICPE Mission was enriched through this diversity of cultures and backgrounds, angradually spread across all continents. In 2002 the Holy See conferred Pontifical Recognition on the Institutefor World Evangelization– ICPE Mission as an International Association of Pontifical Right.

The ICPE Mission currently coordinates its worldwide activity from several regional centers located o

different continents, namely, Germany, New Zealand, Ghana, the Philippines, Rome, India, Singapore, SouthKorea, The United States, and Malta. The 25th Anniversary of the Mission was celebrated in 2010.

 

Structure of the ICPE MissionMembership: Members of the ICPE Mission can come from any category of the faithful, that is: lay people -married or single, religious - male and female, and diocesan priests.  They should be at least twenty-one y

of age and should have both professional qualifications and two years of work experience. On completion of School of Mission and Community Experience, the member goes through a two-year formation program. Thqualities that characterize potential ICPE Missionaries include a living, personal relationship with God, passand zeal for Christ and His mission, adaptability, flexibility, availability, and a readiness to embrace new cul-tures and differences in others.

Leadership: The leadership of the ICPE Mission consists of the Executive Council and the ICPE communityleaders in different countries. Together, these two leadership bodies are responsible for the nurturing of thevision and the life of the Association.  Decision-making in the ICPE Mission is generally through the conseof the body after a consultation process with those whom the decision will ultimately affect.Full-time, Residential Missionaries: At the heart of the ICPE Mission is the full-time lay missionary voca-tion. This lifestyle is characterized by individuals and families who very often leave their home country to livtogether in households, sharing community life and devoting themselves to the Church‟s evangelizing missiin submission to the local Ordinary.ICPE Spiritual Family: Throughout the years, the ICPE Mission established residential communities andhouseholds. More recently, the ICPE family extended itself to include "Companions" and "Friends" who are ling the charism of the ICPE Mission in the heart of society.

Companions: ICPE Companions are members of the ICPE Mission whose personal vocation or circumstancesplaces them at the heart of society, outside an ICPE residential community. These members are engaged in secuemployment, integrated in their local parishes and closely connected to an ICPE residential community. Compaions live and further the ICPE charism and spirit in society wherever they live.

Friends: ICPE Friends are members at heart, informally linked to the Mission. These friends of the ICPE Missionparticipate in the grace of the Mission and endeavor to live according to the spirit which characterizes it, unitedprayer, fraternal love, and common service to the Church with ICPE community members and other Friends of the Mission.

ICPEICPE Mission Spirituality

The heart of the ICPE Mission spirituality is the baptismal covenant of love withGod: “For the love of God has been poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit which has been

given us” (Rom 5:5). The members of the ICPE Mission seek to live this call to holi-ness and mission in an all-encompassing way and with docility to be led by the Holy

Spirit. Through a life of daily prayer, participation in the Sacraments, the study of Scriptures, formation and service, they open their lives to the transforming action of the Holy Spirit as God draws them into intimate self -disclosure. This internal revo-lution of Love precipitates in them a response of worship to the Lord so that their

life is lived out in submission to God.  It is also this dynamism of Love that propelsthem to reach out to others in the world.

  

ICPE PRAYER 

We give thanks to you Lord with all our hearts. Out of your lovikindness you have called us by name and anointed us with your Spto proclaim your name and loving mercy to all the nations, to set tcaptives free and bind the broken hearted. We proclaim with Mour Mother, that you, God Almighty, have done great things for Holy is your name. As we celebrate your faithfulness, we surrender our lives once agthat your Holy Spirit may continue to transform us to be quality dciples. Enfold us in your consuming fire of love, that we may be psionate lovers of you, Lord, your Church and all your people. Grantboldness to speak your word and all the gifts of the Holy Spirit this new time. Maranatha, come Lord Jesus! Use the ordinary, uour lives, to do the extraordinary deeds of your love in the world day.

ICPE Mission Korea is located inSeoul, South Korea.  Titus Choi isthe sole ICPE missionary. Beginningwith joining the mission in 1993,Titus was previously part of ICPENew Zealand for 13 years. In 2007the ICPE Mission was accepted intothe Seoul Diocese, and Titus began

ICPE Mission Korea in 2008. It isthe only Lay Mission Organizationin South Korea, and is in closecollaboration with the KoreanClergy. The Vatican‟s call for Korea tominister to Asia resounded in Titus‟heart. The Holy Father called Koreain particular to minister to Asiabecause of its freedom, along withthe great potential to create a strongCatholic Church in Korea throughdevout, practicing Korean Catholics.Titus returned home to Korea fromNew Zealand to start a missioncenter location. Korea is a safe place to be– it is ademocracy and its citizens havereligious freedom. Korea has a

particularly open atmosphere toaccepting and practicing religions,compared with other Asiancountries. Although it is not aCatholic country (roughly 10% areCatholic) Catholics have a good

reputation. Their faith is more thaa culture for them, adverse to manCatholic countries worldwide whereligion has been reduced to merean element of the culture. Generally, Korean Catholicsscrupulously practice the faith and

have a wonderful prayer life. Yet,unfortunately, there is always atendency for the faith to bediminished to merely “culture”status. Titus tries to counteract thHis focal point for teachings is thneed for Catholics to LIVE the faiand not to just outwardly gothrough the motions of being a goCatholic. Even for Titus, “Theimportant thing is, am I living outwhat I am teaching?”  Titus constantly preaches a 3-foldmessage to share the faith, preparfor eternity, and to know God moin accordance with the ICPEMission charisms of worship andevangelization. Koreans are devouwhich is wonderful soil to buildupon. Titus consistently calls them

to manifest God‟s glory through tlives they lead. “If you do notbecome holy”, Titus teaches, “youcannot give glory to God.” There ithe tendency to go through themotions of the Catholic faith- to

Although both of these realities are full members of the same community, residentialmissionaries live together in thecommunity house, share an intenselifestyle of prayer, and are engaged

in fulltime ministry. Those living ascompanions share the commonspirituality of the ICPE Mission, yetnormally take part in only someaspects of the community life andretain their normal employment and

home environment. Also part of the AdministrativeOffice is Laura Ross, who works Oregon Office Administrator andserves the ICPE Mission globally International Public RelationsAssistant.  The ICPE Mission U

center is coordinated by Mark Dowho oversees the residentialcommunity and Clint Bentz whooversees the development of theCompanions of ICPE MissionUSA. Together they coordinate thwork and ministry of the ICPEMission for the United States.

sisters. The first prayer gathering this newly-formed missioncommunity was held in the sittingroom of Barbara Bentz, who,although ill, was able to be presenfor this momentous occasion. In
