A quote from Pope Francis:

“Each one of us is called to make Jesus known to those who still do not know Him. But this does not mean proselytizing: no. It means opening a door. 'Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel!', St. Paul declared. … I leave you with this question: Am I truly in love with Jesus? Am I convinced that Jesus offers me and gives me salvation? And, if I am in love, I have to make Him known! But we should be courageous: level the the mountains of pride and rivalry; fill in the valleys of indifference and apathy; straighten the paths of our laziness and our comforts.”

-- Angelus prayer, Dec. 7, 2015
