Reflection 220                       Previous reflections                   Resolution                The 16 Documents of Vatican II 

Based on the Vatican 2 document:
On the Mission Activity of the Church
Ad Gentes  - 1

Jesus told his followers to preach the Gospel to all nations.
The first Christians spread the Gospel wherever they went.
This document aims to encourage the continued spread of the Gospel

Many Christians, usually not Catholics, speak about "soul-winning".
As soon as such Chrsitians are baptized,
they are encouraged to help other people know Jesus

Unfortunately this is not the experience of most Catholics.
Most Catholics are little interested in "soul-winning"

Jesus, please help all Christians, especially Catholics,
to be more interested in spreading your Gospel
