Reflection 250
Based on the Vatican II
document (Comments welcome here) |
These articles remind us that evangelisation is a basic duty of every Christian
But
in fact most Catholics don't have a missionary spirit
A missionary spirit is more common among Evangelical Christians
What do Evangelical Christians have that Catholics lack?
-
a passion for the Scriptures
- daily prayer time, based on the Scriptures
- "baptism of the Holy Spirit"
- pastors and a church structure that empower all members to witness
- a church structure where "everything depends on many people", not
"everything depends on the pastor"
Jesus,
please help the Catholic Church rediscover its missionary spirit,
the missionary spirit of the Acts of the Apostles
