“…The Church is missionary by her very nature, since it is from the mission of the Son and the mission of the Holy Spirit that she draws her origin…” (Pope Paul VI, Evangelii Nuntiandi)

“…My vocation, like that of every Christian, is to be a missionary, to proclaim the Gospel wherever one is...” (Pope Leo XIV)

“…The mission of the Christian in the world is a mission for all, a mission of service, which excludes no-one; it requires great generosity and in particular the gaze and heart turned heavenward to invoke the Lord’s help. There is so much need for Christians who bear witness to the Gospel with joy in everyday life. The disciples, sent by Jesus, 'returned with joy'. When we do this, our heart fills with joy...“ (Pope Francis)

“…The Church is missionary by nature, and her principal task is evangelization, which aims to proclaim and to witness to Christ and to promote his Gospel of peace and love in every environment and culture...” (Pope Benedict XVI)
