Etapy ewangelizacji we współczesnym kontekście pastoralnym
Dyk, Stanisław (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2007)
The duty to evangelise is an essential and primary vocation of the Church. In order to better understand the rich reality of evangelisation one should analyse its particular stages. In the light of the Holy Scripture and contemporary teaching of the Church one may distinguish the following stages of evangelisation: prayer, the anointing with the Holy Spirit, a testimony of Christian life, open proclamation of Christ, faith and conversion, joining the fellowship of the Church, participation in the sacramental life, and undertaking apostolic tasks. In its ministry of evangelisation the contemporary Church should take into account the succession of these stages. The contemporary pastoral situation orders the Church to lay a greater emphasis on pre-evangelisation and missionary commitment (the first and new evangelisation). One should not forget that no evangelisation may take place without the prior anointing with the Holy Spirit. This in turn is a fruit of a persistent, humble, and communal prayer.
