2. “Evangelization is not just a work of the Church today, it has been the life of the Church. “Woe to me if I do not Evangelize” (1 Cor. 9, 16). There exists an entire history of Evangelization, just as there is a history of the Church, a history that has come about through the encounter of the Church with the different cultures of each age, the encounter with each generation. To the extent that the inhabited world grew, the Church also found itself in front of new efforts of evangelization. For this reason, the Church has always seen itself and considers itself still, in the state of mission.” Mother Adela.
