Resumo

Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus is the centrality of every Christian mission. This proclamation becomes dialogical through the integrating process of cosmic and metacosmic religions which facilitates the salvific divine-human encounter. The Church has come to realize this process only progressively. It is necessary to understand and to accept this process and this new vision, especially in the context of globalization, which has, increasingly, also a religious dimension. The Asian vision of mission seems relevant across the world as Hindu and Buddhist gurus make their ethical presence felt globally, particularly in Europe and North America. The ultimate goal of mission is the Kingdom of God and the Church as its symbol and servant. We recognize today that the Church is a co-pilgrim, together with other religions, who are fellow pilgrims towards this Kingdom. We are then called to dialogue and collaborate with people around the world. In this process, the Church is called to be in dialogue always with the poor, the cultures and the other religions.
