The short answer to this question is “we are anointed to serve” God, His people and His Church.”

Pope Francis spoke to this topic in his May 22, 2021 Pentecost message, to an ecumenical audience. He concluded his speech with the following message: “Let us be changed by the Holy Spirit so that we can change the world. God is faithful, He never reneges on His promise.”

The Vatican News Service reported on this speech in a article titled: “Pope to CHARIS Pentecost vigil: Holy Spirit changes us so we can change the world.”
