The World Missionary Week will take place from October 16 to 23
on the theme "You will be my witnesses" Acts 1,8
Every year the Church gives us an appointment in October to revive the missionary impulse
Pope Francis sends us a message on this occasion:
"Dear brothers and sisters, I continue to dream of an entirely missionary Church and a new missionary spring of Christian communities. And I repeat Moses' wish for God's people on the way: "If the Lord could make all his people a people of prophets!" (Nb 11:29). Yes, may we all in the Church be what we already are by virtue of our baptism: prophets, witnesses, missionaries of the Lord! With the power of the Holy Spirit, and to the ends of the earth. O Mary, Queen of the Missions, pray for us!"
Let us dream with Pope Francis and pray to grow as missionary disciples!
