In his catechesis, the Pope explained the importance of St. Paul and his example of apostolic zeal. He said that this zeal is like a 'shoe' that guides apostles on their journey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>POPE FRANCIS<br \/>\n<\/strong><em>There is no proclamation without movement, without \u2018going out\u2019, without initiative. This means that there is no Christian if he has not started the journey. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Pope warned the pilgrims against the danger of 'misguided zeal.' He encouraged them to go out to meet people rather than using social media to spread the Gospel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>POPE FRANCIS <br \/>\n<\/strong><em>One does not proclaim the Gospel standing still, locked in an office, at one\u2019s desk or at one\u2019s computer, arguing like \u2018keyboard warriors\u2019 and replacing the creativity of proclamation with copy-and-paste ideas taken from here and there.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>At the end of the audience, Pope Francis had a special greeting for the Polish pilgrims.<\/p>\n<p><strong>POPE FRANCIS <br \/>\n<\/strong><em>Soon we will celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday, instituted by St. John Paul II as willed by the Lord through St. Faustina almost a century ago.
