The Teaching Function of the Church » The Missionary Action of the Church
Canon 787. §1 By the testimony of their words and of their lives, missionaries are to establish a sincere dialogue with those who do not believe in Christ, so that, taking their native character and culture into account, ways may be opened up by which they can be led to know the good news of the Gospel.

§2 Missionaries are to ensure that they teach the truths of the faith to those whom they judge to be ready to receive the good news of the Gospel, so that, if they freely request it, they may be admitted to the reception of baptism.

§1. Missionarii, vitae ac verbi testimonio, dialogum sincerum cum non credentibus in Christum instituant, ut ipsis, ratione eorundem ingenio et culturae aptata, aperiantur viae quibus ad evangelicum nuntium cognoscendum adduci valeant.

§2. Curent ut quos ad evangelicum nuntium recipiendum aestiment paratos, veritates fidei edoceant, ita quidem ut ipsi ad baptismum recipiendum, libere id petentes, admitti possint.
