God is opening before the Church the horizons of a humanity more fully prepared for the sowing of the Gospel.
I sense that the moment has come to commit all of the Church's energies to a new evangelisation and to the mission ad gentes.
No believer in Christ, no institution of the Church can avoid this supreme duty:
to proclaim Christ to all peoples.

(Pope John Paul II, Redemption missio, No, 3 (1990))
