Reflection 232                      Previous reflections                   Resolution                The 16 Documents of Vatican II 

Based on the Vatican 2 document:
On the Mission Activity of the Church
Ad Gentes  - 13

One idea that this article mentions
is the motive why someone becomes a Christian

This has special relevance in places like Hong Kong
where some people become Catholics
in order to get their children into a Catholic school
- or in order to get their corpses into a Catholic cemetery

Therefore dioceses like HK are very careful,
sometimes too careful, about accepting someone for baptism

Jesus, may more and more people become Christians,
for the right motive
