The Church, which perpetuates the work of Jesus, is by nature a missionary Church, and her function is to proclaim the Gospel, God\u2019s good news (no. 1 of the Messsage). The mission is therefore a return to our origins (to fundamentals): Jesus is the only true missionary, the first missionary; his disciples (Christians) are missionaries by proxy (nos. 2 and 3). One person alone is the missionary: Jesus. Therefore all are missionaries: all the disciples, disciples-missionaries, as Francis likes to call them. The mission is the Christian\u2019s responsibility, the responsibility of every Christian &#8211; a task for some particular group of Christians, of a kind of elite body within the Church. It is the duty of all.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>One point which Pope stresses in particular this year refers to young people. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Only one person is the missionary: Jesus Christ. Therefore all of us \u2013 all Christians \u2013 are missionaries. And these include, in particular, our young people (no. 9). The preparatory work for the forthcoming Synod on Young People, the Faith the Gospel and Vocational Discernment, is an opportunity for young people to perform this missionary duty, which is their responsibility as Christians, in society and in the Church.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hospitalarias.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017-Semana-Misionera-Hospitalaria-FINAL-Ing.pdf\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year, on the Feast of Pentecost, the Pope issues a message for World Mission Day.
