I. Communities that proclaim Jesus Christ to the world of today
Welcoming all who seek God
The routes of men and women are the paths of God. Those who seek God are many and their itineraries numerous.
Subsequent to the work of the Synod, I promulgate the following proposals:
1. That all pastoral leaders, in a spirit of openness and respect for differences, be attentive to the spiritual needs of people who are seeking God and use simple everyday language. (A-01)
2. That the Church of Montreal express openly its belief that salvation through Jesus Christ is available to all men and women, acknowledge the value of other religions and teach its members respect for all persons seeking God. (A-03)
3. That the Church of Montreal intensify its partnership with Christian Churches in matters of Christian education in the schools and of social justice, in prayer services and pastoral projects that meet the needs of our pluralistic and multiethnic society. (A-02)
4. That pastoral leaders make available objective information on different beliefs and on the different religious groups present in our milieu and treat with understanding people who are tempted to leave Catholicism as well as those who wish to return to it. (A-04)
