4. Evangelization is Everything The Mission of the Church The Church is missionary by her very nature, for Christ's mandate is not something contingent or external, but reaches the very heart of the Church. Redemptoris Missio, 62 The Reason the Church Exists The Church is born of the evangelizing activity of Jesus and the Twelve. She is the normal, desired, most immediate and most visible fruit of this activity: "Go, therefore, make disciples of all the nations.“ Evangelii Nuntiandi, 15
