THE WHOLE CHURCH IS MISSIONARY


No one who has received the immense gift of faith may enjoy it selfishly, but is bound ... by Christian love to share it with others.

Since there is a variety of conditions of life, and consequently different ways of giving a response, each member of the Church is reached by this call, which is directed to each and every one.

The whole Church is missionary ... To forget this or to carry it out carelessly would be, on our part, a betrayal of our Master.

- Pope Paul VI.
