The Holy Father pointed out on one occasion that Latin America was preparing to reevangelize Europe and to evangelize other regions of the world; and he saw this as the plan for the region for the Third Millennium. Latin America is now a mature Church, ready to give a Pope to the universal Church, if not during this conclave, then during the next.

We should be very faithful to pastoral philosophy and the divine evangelizing teaching of Jesus. Perhaps we should be more concerned, not only with the poor as the primary object of Evangelization, but also with poverty itself in Evangelization as a source of apostolic fertility. Considering our resources and time, it is important to give further attention to direct evangelization.
