"The Mission of Consolation of Christ is to respond to God's call through ministries of prayer
and service".
"To intensify the apostolic activity of the people of God, the most holy synod
earnestly addresses itself to the laity, whose proper and indispensable role in the mission of the Church has already been
dealt with in other documents. The apostolate of the laity derives from their Christian vocation and the
Church can never be without it. Sacred Scripture clearly shows how spontaneous and fruitful such activity was at the very
beginning of the Church" (cf. Acts 11:19-21; 18:26; Rom. 16:1-16; Phil. 4:3). POPE PAUL VI, APOSTOLICAM ACTUOSITATEM
