The Society of African Missions (SMA Fathers) is a community of Roman Catholic missionary organizations who come from around the world with a commitment to serve the people of Africa and of African descent. The Society was founded in 1850 by Mgr de Marion Br?sillac (Bishop Melchior de Marion Br?sillac) with the blessing of Pope Pius IX. The initials refer to the name in Latin: Societas Missionum ad Afros. For 150 years, SMA missionaries have been present in Africa. The members of the Society of African Missions – priests, brothers and lay missionaries - strive to be a living witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the sixteen countries in Africa where they are present and among people of African heritage wherever they live.
