“Placuit Deo”

2 March 2018

The good news of salvation has a name and a face: Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior. “Being a Christian is not the result of an ethical choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a new horizon and a decisive direction.” (PD 8; quoting Benedict XVI)

 The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith presented a new document published recently, addressing especially to Bishops, about the understanding of Salvation in Christ. For our apostolic mission, illuminate, and examine the present tendencies in the missionary live …. important to meditate and confront with in this time of Lent.
