Latin American perspective,includes four fundamental concepts in its construction: Being together: joint experience, reciprocal action, living together. In the way that Jesus walked alongside the couple of disciples on the way to Emmaus. (Luke 24:13-31). We need to understand the mission goes way beyond the verbal aspect, it is sharing life, it is a two-way street. As in Geraldo Vandres song: Learning and Teaching...Emersion: emerging in the reality, adapting, accepting a new identity, a new culture. This was the understanding of the apostle Paul who became a Jew for the Jews, a Gentile for the Gentiles, weak for the weak (1 Corinthians 9:19-22). Permeability: accepting the impulse of others, inverting the logic of the traditional missionary vision, the logic of the conquest. Mission here is not seen as an action, but as allowing oneself to be seduced (Jeremiah 20:7). Often this means living the drama of Jonah, letting go of our convictions and accepting others (Jonah 4:5-11).Updating the gospel: at the beginning of this letter we affirmed that, although the message of the gospel is unique it is transmitted according to the context. We need to reinterpret the gospel within the new reality. To read it again, as we say, to make a releitura a re-read or reinterpretation. The Bible is full of reinterpretations, but perhaps the affirmations of Jesus in the famous Sermon on the Mount is the best example of this (Mathew 5:21-44). The text is organized in a way that the previous interpretation is mentioned and immediately afterwards the new interpretation is presented, marked by the expressions: You have heard that it was said and But I say to you9. This does not only give us the license to do the same thing, but also points out the need to do so. With love on our mind9.We couldnot endthis pastoralletter withoutmentioning thefact thatmission isnot anecclesiasticalimperative, anobligation ofthe Church,but animpulse ofthe heartthat attendsto Godsmissionary call.Mission islove andpassion whichis interpretedhere asthe nervoussideofLove10.This wasalready partof thesong writtenfor theCentenary ofthe EpiscopalAnglican Churchof Brazil,by XicoEsvael: TheChurchwelivewithpassion,theChurchisGodspeopleinmission.10.Finally, webelieve thatwe findthe fulfillmentof thisnew missionaryparadigm inthe witnessof oneof ourecumenicalcompanions, knowby mostpeople inour Diocese,our dearSister TeaFrigerio, anItalian womanwho allowedherself tobe seducedby thiswork inthis edgeof theworld calledthe Amazon:Icannotdenythattheromanticdreamofadventurewaspresentinmymissionaryideal.IcannotdenythatIcametoBrazilfilledwithcertainties,withconvictions.Mylifewiththeparaenses(peopleofPara)challengedmetofollowanewwayofthinking,toleavemycertaintiesandconvictionsbehindtogointotheforestandfindnewideas,discoverhiddentreasures.AndinthiswayIfoundthatmyconvictionsaboutmissionbecameasearch.Asearchfullofrespect,admiration,openness,availability.Acolourfulsearchofecumenism,religiouspluralism,universalism.Asearchthathasthefaceofhumanityandcitizenship.11.11.Now weare leftto continuethe journey,putting intopractice thenew lessonsin theAmazon contextand greatlyrejoiceforthe100yearsoftheAnglicanChurchintheAmazon.Withsincerehearts,wethankyouforthepioneersinthemissionofthechurchwhocourageouslycrossedourrivers,forestsandroads.Wearegrateful,Lord,tobepartofthisstory.ThankyoufortrustinginusAnglicansthroughouttheseyearstoproclaimyourGospelofLove.Wearearesultofyourgrace,unitedindiversity,throughtheWord,traditionandreason,signsleftbythosewhoarepartofthisimmensecommunion.Continuetoinspireus,keepingtheflameoftheHolySpiritaliveamongussothatwemayproclaim,foreverandever,yourWordthatshallneverend.ReceiveourpraiseandoffertoryinprofoundgratitudefortheLivingPresenceoftheChurchintheAmazon.InthenameoftheGodoflife,Divinewisdom.Amen!12 1Book of Common Prayer. 2CALVANI, Carlos Eduardo.
