<\/strong>If salvation is meant for all, even the most distant and lost, then the proclamation of the Word must become the main priority of the Church community, as it was for Jesus. Let us not profess a big-hearted God and be a narrow-hearted Church\u2014this would be, I dare say, a curse.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
