“We are wrongly being told, even by some Church leaders [= Francis], when we speak of our missionary vocation, that we should not ‘proselytise’,” Tyler Bishop Joseph Strickland, Texas, writes on TheWandererPress.com (April 27).
Strickland explains that John Paul II addressed “this mistaken use of the word” in Redemptoris Missio 46.
John Paul II criticises that converting non-Christians is sometimes presented “as an act of ‘proselytizing’.”
However, he points out that “every person has the right to hear the ‘Good News’ of the God who reveals and gives himself in Christ.”
