TWITTER @PONTIFEX Pope Francis . “The Church which “goes forth” is a
community of missionary disciples who take the first step, who are involved
and supportive, who bear fruit and rejoice. An evangelizing community knows
that the Lord has taken the initiative, he has loved us first (cf. 1 Jn 4:19), and
therefore we can move forward, boldly take the initiative, go out to others, seek
those who have fallen away, stand at the crossroads and welcome the outcast. Such a community
has an endless desire to show mercy, the fruit of its own experience of the power of the Father’s
infinite mercy. Let us try a little harder to take the first step and to become involved. APOSTOLIC
EXHORTATION,EVANGELII GAUDIUM,OF THE HOLY FATHER FRANCIS
