Isaiah 30:19-21,23-26; Psalm 147:1-6; Matthew 9:35-10:1, 5, 6-8

Make disciples

Christ’s call, and the insistent call of every pope to everyone these past fifty-six years, is to make disciples. The Church exists to evangelise. “In all the baptised, from first to last, the sanctifying power of the Spirit is at work, impelling us to evangelise. “ (Pope Francis). In virtue of this pressing challenge let us at least pray for people to give their hearts to Jesus and, when possible, let’s do more. Let’s make disciples for Christ as best we can.
