Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. (Matthew 29:19-20) The mission of the Church is to proclaim and establish the Kingdom of God begun by Jesus Christ among all peoples. This mission cannot be accomplished by not talking to or being afraid of the people of the world. It is also a bit hard to not contact the other people of the world when 1 in 6 people in the world are Catholic.

Q. I watch a lot of British television shows and have noticed that they seem to always bring grapes to friends/family in hospital. Since flowers are traditional here in America, I was wondering if this was a specifically British tradition. Also wondering, why grapes? Asked by k_nightfox - Tue Aug 24 04:11:45 2010 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. Yeah if you watch English tv they always show people giving grapes to those in hospital. But to be honest, we don't really do that in real life! We might bring fruit occasionally, but it is normally flowers, like in America. The grape thing... well I don't really know where that come from! Maybe people used to do that like, 100 years ago? I don' know, but it isn't a tradition nowadays.
