The Church was founded for no other but one reason: to follow the praxis of Jesus, to make God’s creating and healing love touchable every day in our world. The Church can realize this mission by stepping out of herself and going into mission, not only geographically, but existentially, to the wounds of the world. To the wounds of personal and global crises she brings the healing balsam of love. Pope Francis brings us closer to the rediscovery that the Church, as a dynamic community of Christ, is nothing else as a community of love. Because of it, she has always to renew her mission in two directions (in a dual sense) of love: love toward God and love toward people. Key words: mission, love, Jesus’ praxis, going out, to follow, dual orientation. |
