Evangelii Gaudium: Moving the Church from Maintenance to Mission
In his apostolic exhortation, Evangelii Gaudium, Pope Francis invites all to a personal encounter with Jesus Christ. We are not to keep the faith to ourselves, but are sent as missionary disciples to transform the world to Christ.

How can we accomplish this call to be a missionary disciple today?
