The Church is a living thing. Like all living things, it is constantly transforming itself. In this process of change, it may encounter difficulties, but it never forgets its evangelizing identity. Renewal of the Church, the Holy Father tells us, is guided by the Holy Spirit and begins with “a reform of ourselves, without prefabricated ideas, without ideological prejudices, without rigidity.” Let us join Francis’s dream of a Church with “an even more missionary option: that it go out to meet others without proselytism and that it transform all its structures for the evangelization of today’s world.”

If you share this dream, share the Pope’s message with all those who want to progress along the path which he is showing us.
