Pope Francis warns mission societies against becoming NGOs

Pope Francis elevates the Eucharist during Mass outside the Basilica of St. John Lateran in Rome June 4. Pope Francis reminded the work of mission societies belongs to Jesus and reducing a group to functionalism will lead to ruin.

VATICAN CITY - The mission-oriented agencies of the Church must guard against operating like nongovernmental organizations, empty of Christ's presence, Pope Francis said.
