Pope Francis says he prefers the church which is bruised, hurting and dirty because it has been out on the streets, rather than a church which is unhealthy from being confined and from clinging to its own security.

The document suggests major changes are on the way, with Francis noting that the Church has to get over an attitude that says: We have always done it this way.

圣方济教皇说他更愿意教堂受损害、脏兮兮的，因为它已经走到大街上，而不是不健康地闭门不开，紧紧守着自己的安全。过多的集中化，而不是起到帮助，会使教堂的生活和传教宣传变得复杂。文件显示目前已经发生了重大变化，圣方济指出教堂必须抛弃这样的态度：我们一直都是这么做的。
