Komunikat Komisji Konferencji Episkopatu Polski ds. Misji na stulecie ustanowienia Światowego Dnia Misyjnego czyli Niedzieli Misyjnej
The Commission of the Polish Episcopal Conference on Missions released a communication to mark the centenary of the establishment of World Mission Day, also known as Mission Sunday.
The commission invites parents and educators to model their lives on the Gospel to fulfill the Church's missionary calling. The message states that mission involves more than traveling to different time zones or distances, as members of local pastoral communities continue to support emerging faith communities. Instead, the commission describes mission as a shared responsibility to make the world a better place by sharing the fullness of life found in the Gospel.
The communication notes that this missionary dynamic is reflected in various Church rites, such as the opening of the Gospel book during the consecration of bishops and the emphasis on faith formation during baptisms and marriages. It encourages people to find moments of stillness and witness to faith within the fast-paced nature of modern culture.
