MISSIONARY DAY

Construction of ecclesial communion is the key to the mission.

is the title of Benedict XVI's message for World Mission Day. In his words emerges the call to conversion, the need for communion, seeking'une deep encounter with Jesus.
"We want to see Jesus", this phrase from the Gospel of John (12:21) often heard this year in our meetings with young people, because it was the theme of the carol of the Rector Major, was chosen by Pope Benedict XVI to highlight how the month of October helps us remember that "the concern and commitment to the proclamation of the gospel look to the whole Church, a missionary by nature" and invites us all to be promoters of the newness of life made of genuine relationships in communities based on the Gospel.

World Mission Day is an invitation thinking about those who give themselves totally to the service of the Gospel, to bring the love of God to all peoples and all cultures. But it is also a day to reflect on the Church itself as a whole. It is very important that the basis of the mission, the Pope rightly put ecclesial communion.

A Church that knows how to start his own conversion, which is to rediscover the essence of the Gospel proclamation maid who discovers the love of God who needs men and women who testified to truly love Him and those they encounter.

The message (which can be found in full in various languages on the site www.vatican.va) offers many points of reflection. One reads: "In a multi-ethnic society where you meet ever more forms of solitude and indifference of concern, Christians should be able to offer signs of hope and become universal brothers, cultivating ideals that are transforming the history and, without unnecessary fears or false hopes, are committed to making the planet, home to all peoples. "

's announcement, the evidence, genuine relationships, defense of life, signs hopes, builders of communion, processors in the world. "

That dream of God on every Christian is also the dream of Don Bosco and Mother Mazzarello for each of us and for young people we meet.
