THE PRESIDENT'S WORD
The International Missionary Benefit Society brings
together nearly 30 000 members : priests, religious,
members of faithful associations, missionaries
or attached to indigenous communities, Catholics,
Protestants or Orthodox. By taking charge of
their health, the IMS contributes to the vitality
of the Church.
Since March 2020, in addition to the many sicks and
deceased persons, the Covid-19 impacts the pastoral
life and the economic activity of our dioceses and communities.
This strengthens our responsibility towards each other. The
Steering Committee is vigilant on the balance of accounts but
also wants solidarity to spread more among groups in great
difficulty due to the pandemic. A social fund exists, groups can
send exceptional request for help or discounts on contributions
to their Section.
I invite everyone to show solidarity by ensuring balance of
his group’s accounts. Let these words of Pope Francis, in the
encyclical Fratelli Tutti No. 115, encourage us : "At a time when
everything seems to disintegrate and lose consistency, it is good
for us to appeal to the « solidity » born of the consciousness that
we are responsible for the fragility of others as we strive to build
a common future. [...] And service in great part means « caring
"
for vulnerability. »
This Services Guide provides much-needed informations for your
communities. Additional information is available on the new IMS
website. Don't hesitate to consult it and share your reactions.
In communion of prayer and mutual aid to welcome the
new 2021.
Sister Elisabeth Auliac
IMS's President

As the regional antenna of the IMS, their mission of Christian solidarity is reco-
gnized and appreciated by all related religious communities.

play a key role in the functioning of the Association :
• Administrative management of group beneficiary members
• Essential outreach role

Health evacuation in case of serious illness - Mutas
The International Missionary Benefit Society has chosen the non-profit association MUTAS
to propose a medical evacuation solution in case of a serious condition. This offer is for
International Options 1 and 2.
In these situations, Mutas is responsible for the decision, coordination and organisation for
medical evacuation.
What are the costs?
• The support may involve a plane ticket for the person to be evacuated, an ambulance if
necessary, an ambulance or a taxi, etc.
• The request for evacuation must be justified medically and by the need to be hospitalized
as soon as he arrives, either within the continent or to Europe.
• Please note that obtaining an adequate visa is an issue for the applicant to resolve.
Practical information about this guarantee is available on the website IMS :
https://www.entraide-missionnaire.com/en/contributions-and-assistance/medical-evacuation/
