Preaching salvation to all

Claim:
The Church is deeply aware of her duty to preach salvation to all. Knowing that the Gospel message is not reserved to a small group of the initiated, the privileged or the elect, but is destined for everyone, she shares Christ's anguish at the sight of the wandering and exhausted crowds, like sheep without a shepherd, and she often repeats His words: I feel sorry for all these people. But the Church is also conscious of the fact that, if the preaching of the Gospel is to be effective, she must address her message to the heart of the multitudes, to communities of the faithful whose action can and must reach others. (Papal Writings, Evangelii Nuntiandi: On evangelization in the modern world, 8 December 1975).
