\nPresident, Pontifical Missionary Works
\n\u201cFor Jesus and His Church, dialogue is an attitude of the heart and of action. It is indispensable to the work of evangelization.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\nRedemptorist Missionary
\n\u201cIt's a kind of formation which should include all of God's people, especially the laity. It should help them take up the entire mission, from a lay perspective, to serve all of society.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\nDoctor of Theology
\n\u201cThe mission should be for everyone, without exceptions, and present the Gospel in every moment. The missionary shouldn't just be who brings the Gospel, and the recipient someone who merely receives it. There should be a reciprocal relationship.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\nBolivian Catholic University
\n\u201cMissionaries shouldn't have a priori judgments nor preconceptions of the religious ambiguity we live. Rather, they should know how to listen and how to see that reality and learn from it.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\nDirector, OMP Chile
\n\u201cAs Catholics, we're used to living with a sense of homogeneity. We believe our religion to be the only one on the continent, when in reality, there are many, including our indigenous religions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
