MISSION: We cannot but speak….. (Fr. Michael P.O’ Sullivan, Intercom October 2021.)
After the first World War, Pope Benedict XV invited Catholics to bring light to a world devasted by conflict. By virtue of their baptism, all Catholics were called to be missionary minded, and missionaries needed to be men and women of God. His successor Pope Pius X1 made the second last Sunday of October a day dedicated to ‘the missions’ that is a special day to pray for and assist missionaries in their call to ‘go out to the whole world and proclaim the Good News’. Over a century has passed since this missionary call gave a fresh impetus to the Church to ‘go out to the whole world.’
