The missionary project of an outgoing Church, a “poor Church for the poor” is at the heart of Pope Francis' pastoral concerns and guidelines and is the hallmark of his pastoral ministry. The objective of this research is to reflect on ecclesiology and mission in the Magisterium of Pope Francis. Based on the methodology of bibliographic review, we will try to weave a reflection on the proposed theme. From a formal point of view, the research problem was formulated as follows: Would Pope Francis' ecclesiology be an answer to the problem of mission in the Church? How can Pope Francis' ecclesiology make the Church missionary and welcoming to the oorest? The Pope's appeal to the whole Church is to reach out to those who are on the geographic and existential peripheries, breaking with an attitude of self-preservation and maintenance of pastorals and movements. The true Missionary Church of Christ, in Francisco's perspective, is the one that is hurt, is hurt, is persecuted, is not afraid, is misunderstood, but never clings to its security. He seeks that the Church have the courage to go against the current of the “discard culture”, of mismatching, but prioritize the “culture of encounter” of brothers who love and respect each other even beyond differences. In the Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii Gaudium, Francis states that “in the heart of God, the poor have a preferential place” (EG, n.197) and also: “if there is a sign that must never be lacking among us, it is the “option for the least, for those that society discards and throws away” (EG, n.195). In this we see the authenticity, fidelity and competence of the Church's missionary action. The proposal is a Church outside of itself, willing to leave its own comfort and security to reach all the eripheries that need the light of the Gospel. Thus, the idea of a Church that is more active than structural, more committed to the reality of the suffering people, emerges
