APOSTOLIC JOURNEY OF HIS HOLINESS POPE FRANCIS
TO ECUADOR, BOLIVIA AND PARAGUAY
(5-13 JULY 2015)
HOLY MASS AT CAMPO GRANDE
HOMILY OF THE HOLY FATHER
Ñu Guazú, Asunción (Paraguay) Sunday, 12 July 2015 (Part 1)
“The Lord will shower down blessings, and our land will yield its increase”. These are the
words of the Psalm. We are invited to celebrate this mysterious communion between God
and his People, between God and us. The rain is a sign of his presence, in the earth tilled
by our hands. It reminds us that our communion with God always brings forth fruit,
always gives life. This confidence is born of faith, from knowing that we depend on grace,
which will always transform and nourish our land.
It is a confidence which is learned, which is taught. A confidence nurtured within a
community, in the life of a family. A confidence which radiates from the faces of all those
people who encourage us to follow Jesus, to be disciples of the One who can never
deceive. A disciple knows that he or she is called to have this confidence; we feel Jesus’s
invitation to be his friend, to share his lot, his very life. “No longer do I call you servants...
but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known
to you”. The disciples are those who learn how to live trusting in the friendship offered by
Jesus.
The Gospel speaks to us of this kind of discipleship. It shows us the identity card of the
Christian. Our calling card, our credentials.
Jesus calls his disciples and sends them out, giving them clear and precise instructions. He
challenges them to take on a whole range of attitudes and ways of acting. Sometimes these
can strike us as exaggerated or even absurd. It would be easier to interpret these attitudes
symbolically or “spiritually”. But Jesus is quite precise, very clear. He doesn’t tell them
simply to do whatever they think they can.
Let us think about some of these attitudes: “Take nothing for the journey except a staff; no
bread, no bag, no money...” “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave the
place” (cf. Mk 6:8-11). All this might seem quite unrealistic.
We could concentrate on the words, “bread”, “money”, “bag”, “staff”, “sandals” and
“tunic”. And this would be fine. But it strikes me that one key word can easily pass
unnoticed among the challenging words I have just listed. It is a word at the heart of
Christian spirituality, of our experience of discipleship: “welcome”. Jesus as the good
master, the good teacher, sends them out to be welcomed, to experience hospitality. He
says to them: “Where you enter a house, stay there”. He sends them out to learn one of the
hallmarks of the community of believers. We might say that a Christian is someone who
has learned to welcome others, who has learned to show hospitality. (To be continued) Libreria Editrice Vaticana
