SW News: On World Mission Day, Pope Francis urged Christians to radiate the beauty of Jesus.The Holy Father celebrated a special Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica on Sunday.
In his homily, Pope Francis emphasized the importance of evangelization. “We were not born to stay on the ground, to be satisfied with flat things, we were born to reach the heights, to meet God and the brothers. But for this we must ascend: we must leave a horizontal life, fight against the gravity of selfishness, make an exodus from one's own ego,” he said.
“Going up, therefore, costs effort, but it is the only way to see everything better, like when you go to the mountains and only at the top you can see the most beautiful view and you understand that you could not conquer it except for that path always in climb,” he added.
Pope Francis said that everyone is a precious treasure and the meaning of life is to give this treasure to others.
Following World Mission Day Mass, Pope Francis recited the Angelus from a window overlooking St. Peter’s Square.
