The Apostleship of the Sea (AOS), as a Catholic ministry of charity, has always had seafarers’ welfare as its top priority. This is represented in three ways:

Seafarers’ spiritual wellbeing regardless of their race, colour, creed or gender;Seafarers’ families, keeping them in touch using up-to-date technology;Seafarers’ social welfare, with building community on board ships, opportunities to leave the port environment, and feel part of our global family.
