The proclamation of the Good News of Christ to those who have not yet heard of it, especially the poor and most abandoned, in Africa and among peoples of African origin. It expresses fidelity to the charism of the Founder.
Justice, peace and integration of creation

Through youth empowerment programs. We pay particular attention to the youth through our SMA Youths ministry among other activities.
Interreligious and intercultural dialogues
SMA
we endeavour to promote dialogue and cooperation with other religions and beliefs. We also engage different cultures wherever we are present.
The SMA mission prioritize primary evangelization areas and places of
special needs focusing primarily on Africa and the people of African
origin. SMA members come from Europe, America (North and South), Asia
and Africa herself. In all, majority of the SMA members from the very
beginning till today have worked in Africa and among the people of
African origin.
Being the first Catholic missionary congregation to
arrive in some parts of Africa the Society of African Missions (SMA),
has been at the fore front of planting churches in African communities
and gradually withdrawing as the church become self-sustaining and only
maintain a simple presence for the purpose of missionary vocation
sourcing and fund raising for the assistance of other dependent
churches.
The mission of the SMA in Nigeria has been about
evangelization (the preaching of the good news) through education,
promotion of primary health care, promotion of dialogue for a peaceful
co-existence and the grooming of the youth.
