"It is our duty to proclaim the Good News. Our approach to evangelisation is based on an integral vision of the human person, as a spiritual being who lives in the world. We proclaim salvation not only in heaven but already here on earth. We do not say "we are waiting for a perfect world in heaven" instead we say there is a world waiting for the saving message of the Lord. This is why we are active also in the social field."
