Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Every year we celebrate World Mission Sunday on the third Sunday of October. This year,
2008, the Church in the United Stated marks the 100th anniversary of our no longer being a mission
territory. In 1908, it was decided that we had reached a point of self-sufficiency as the Catholic Church
in the United States. As we mark this anniversary, we celebrate our rich missionary history and reflect
with gratitude on the debt we owe to the missionaries who journeyed here and to the Catholics who
supported their efforts through the Pontifical Mission Societies.
The Second Vatican Council reminded us that we are all missionaries by reason of our Baptism.
We are called to proclaim Christ to all people through our words, but more importantly by our lives.
Today, we pray for missionaries throughout the world and offer our financial support as a way to share
in the mission of the Church.
In this Year of Saint Paul, Pope Benedict XVI has challenged us to imitate the zeal of St. Paul
and devote ourselves anew to the work of mission in our home, neighborhood, work-place and
wherever we find ourselves. Each day we must allow the Word of God to transform our lives to such
an extent that we give a compelling witness to the love of Christ. Love must be the motivation for our
participation in the mission of Christ, and, like Paul, we need to emulate the compassion, tenderness,
care and availability of the Lord in whose footsteps we follow; then we will be true “servants and
apostles of Christ Jesus.”
The Church exists for mission, and numerous people await the proclamation of the Gospel.
Your support of the Pontifical Mission Society is a sign of our communion in the Mystical Body of
Christ. It is a communion that needs to be extended through mission. Pray for all missionaries to be
authentic ambassadors of Christ. Love with a deep sense of mission so that the light of Christ can shine
brightly on all people. Thank you and God bless you.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Francis Cardinal George, O.M.I.
Archbishop of Chicago

19 października, 2008 r.
Drodzy Bracia i Siostry w Chrystusie,
W każdą trzecią niedzielę października obchodzimy na całym świecie Niedzielę Misyjną. W
tym roku przypada 100 lat, od kiedy Kościół w Stanach Zjednoczonych stał się samowystarczalny, a
tym samym przestał być terenem misyjnym. Wspominając tę rocznicę chcemy celebrować naszą
bogatą historię misyjną i zastanowić się nad tym ile zawdzięczamy misjonarzom, którzy przybyli tutaj
oraz Katolikom, którzy wspierali ich wysiłki poprzez Papieskie Dzieła Misyjne.
Sobór Watykański II przypomniał nam, że jesteśmy misjonarzami od chrztu św., którzy
otrzymaliśmy w Kościele świętym. Dlatego też, wszyscy jesteśmy wezwani do głoszenia Chrystusa
poprzez nasze słowa, ale jeszcze bardziej przez nasze życie.
Dzisiaj modlimy się za wszystkich misjonarzy na całym świecie i chcemy ich wspomóc
finansowo, aby w ten sposób mieć udział w dziele misyjnym Kościoła.
W tym roku, który obchodzony jest jako Rok św. Pawła, Papież Benedykt XVI zachęca nas do
naśladowania jego gorliwości i zaangażowania się w pracę misyjną w naszych domach, miejscach
pracy i gdziekolwiek jesteśmy.
Każdego dnia musimy pozwolić Słowu Bożemu przemieniać nasze życie do tego stopnia,
abyśmy się stawali świadkami miłości Chrystusowej, która musi być motywacją naszego udziału w
miłości Chrystusa. Powinniśmy współzawodniczyć w trosce, dyspozycyjności, serdeczności i
gotowości na wzór Jezusa naszego Pana, którego chcemy naśladować i abyśmy jak św. Paweł stawali
się prawdziwymi sługami i uczniami Jezusa Chrystusa.
Kościół musi być misyjny, ponieważ niezliczone rzesze ludzi czekają na Ewangelię. Wasze
wspieranie Papieskich Dzieł Misyjnych jest znakiem jedności w Mistycznym Ciele Chrystusa, dzięki
któremu mogą być kontynuowane i rozszerzane misje głoszenia Dobrej Nowiny w Kościele.
Módlmy się za wszystkich misjonarzy i misjonarki, aby byli prawdziwymi ambasadorami
Chrystusa. Musimy sobie nieustannie uświadamiać, że wszyscy jesteśmy odpowiedzialni za misje,
dlatego prośmy, aby światło Chrystusa mogło jaśniej świecić wszystkim ludziom.
Dziękuję wszystkim za wspieranie Papieskich Dzieł Misyjnych i z serca Wam błogosławię.
Oddany w Chrystusie,
Francis Kardynał George, O.M.I.
Arcybiskup Chicago
