Nagasaki, Japan, Nov 23, 2019 / 11:30 pm (CNA).- On the Feast of Christ the King Sunday, Pope Francis encouraged Catholics to not be indifferent to evil, but to bear witness to hope and to the kingdom of God still to come.

“If, as missionary disciples, our mission is to be witnesses and heralds of things to come, we cannot become resigned in the face of evil in any of its forms,” he said Nov. 24, at Mass in a baseball stadium in Nagasaki, Japan.
