In his monthly video message, Pope Francis challenged everyone to be “missionary disciples.”
“It’s enough to be available to answer His call and to live united to the Lord in the most common daily things —work, meeting other people, our daily duties, the chance events of each day— allowing ourselves to be guided always by the Holy Spirit,” said the pope.
“Let us remember that the mission is not proselytism,” he said.
“The mission is based on an encounter between people, on the testimony of men and women who say, ‘I know Jesus, and I’d like you to know Him too,’” said Pope Francis.
