We are a loose network of organisations, groups and individuals across the world seeking to continue the spirit of Edmund Rice. As a young man, Edmund, with a group of friends, immersed in the world of work and family life, formed a little Gospel community active in the city of Waterford. They shared prayer and spiritual reading, and they combined this with active outreach to the destitute, street children, orphans, prisoners, slaves and immigrants.

Edmund Rice Mission focuses on the liberation of people and communities. Edmund Rice, inspired by Jesus, responded to the marginalised of his time. Today, living out of a new consciousness of the interconnection of all life, groups of people inspired by the story of Edmund's life form small communities that journey and converse together, stepping outside their comfort zones in respectful service. They seek to make a difference to the lives of marginalised people through compassionate presence and seeking mutual transformation. Edmund Rice Mission promotes human rights and fullness of life for all, especially those made poor. 

Our work is shaped by the  UN Sustainable Development Goals expressed in development projects in more than 15 countries.
