Pope Benedict to Taiwan Bishops: Evangelize!


Benedict XVI's speech to the Bishops of Taiwan at the end of their Ad Limina to Rome.

Do not be afraid of evangelizing because God is with you, the Pope said in his speech to the Bishops of Taiwan at the end of their Ad Limina visit.

Benedict XVI explained that the Church must be one big family and emphasized how important it is to be good Catholics and good citizens in the society where one lives.

Bearing in mind the faithful who live in main land China, the Pope sent a request through the Bishops to Catholics in Taiwan: to pray for the great Chinese Catholic family that they may continue to live united.

Benedict XVI encouraged the bishops to care for the pastoral needs of migrants and to attend to their material needs, making charity an effective practice.
