[[Image:ImpMissionary1.jpg|thumb|300px|right|An Imperial Missionary]]A '''Missionary''' is an agent of the [[Missionarius Galaxia]] and tasked with spreading the word of the [[Imperial Cult|Imperial Creed]] throughout the [[Imperium]]. They have little guidance from the [[Adeptus Ministorum]] and are mainly free to spread the faith in any way they see fit.
They usually run charitable institutions called Missions on newly discovered human worlds. Missions take the form of schools and hospitals. One of the purposes of these institutions is to further the observance of the Imperial Cult. The most famous Missions are the [[Schola Progenium]], which are schools for training Imperial orphans to be Imperial servants<sup>1,</sup><sup>2</sup>.
