Pope Francis reminds us: "Christian families are missionary families"... families that are "the salt of the earth and the light of the world...the leaven of society."
Did you know that families are called to be missionaries? For some families, that may mean moving around the world to share the Gospel with people who don’t know Jesus. But for most families, being missionaries means living the Gospel in the midst of your daily family life: carrying Jesus “into the world,” as Pope Francis says. Offering “the witness of your family life”… in the carpool, at work, at soccer practice, in the grocery store. Families are challenged not to be closed in on their own needs and concerns, but to be open to others. A particular witness is being welcoming to people without families or with difficult family situations, for example: widows, children of divorce, and single people. “Do not hide Jesus!” Pope Francis exhorts.
