Evangelisation is an important part of the Church’s mission and its aim is to bring man to meet with God the saviour. Preaching the Gospel cannot be reduced to words, but it requires testimony in the form of deeds. Acts of love, for which the best source is the conduct of Jesus, described in the Gospels, are the most credible. The Church not only tries to imitate Jesus, but also to make Him present in the God’s words that it preaches and in the ministry of charity. The truth of His infinite love is the most important truth that it communicates to the faithful. Therefore, evangelisation is always a form of communicating God’s love. The testimony of the faith in Christ, confirmed by acts of love, is extremely convincing and clear. Therefore, evangelisational activities of the Church must always include Christian caritas, i.e. ministration to the needy.
