The Church’s mission,
directed to all men and women of good will,
is based on the transformative power of the Gospel.
The Gospel is Good News filled with contagious joy,
for it contains and offers new life: the life of the Risen Christ
who, by bestowing his life-giving Spirit, becomes for us
the Way, the Truth and the Life (cf. Jn 14:6).
He is the Way who invites us to follow him with confidence and courage.
In following Jesus as our Way,
we experience Truth and receive his Life,
which is fullness of communion with God the Father
in the power of the Holy Spirit.
That life sets us free from every kind of selfishness,
and is a source of creativity in love.
Pope Francis
