Evangelii praecones
''Evangelii praecones'' (June 2, 1951) was an encyclical letter of Pope Pius XII about Catholic missions. In it, he described necessary improvements and changes, and the persecution of the Church in some parts of the world. The encyclical was issued in commemoration of the 25th. anniversary of the encyclical Rerum Ecclesiae by his predecessor Pope Pius XI.〔AAS 1951, 497〕
==Progress made ==
In the letter, Pius XII wrote that despite war and much political turbulence, the last 25 years were blessed with success. He also states that the number of Catholic missions increased 50%, from 400 to 600; the faithful increased from 15 to almost 21 million people, the number of native and foreign priests increased from 14,800 to 26,800. The letter further states that twenty-five years ago, all bishops were foreign born and by 1951, 88 bishops were nationals of their country. For instance, in Pakistan and in some parts of Africa the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy was established; three Plenary Councils were held, in Indochina (1934), Australia (1937) and India (1950). Minor seminaries have been greatly increased and strengthened. The number of those studying in major seminaries, which 25 years ago was only 1,770 was now 4,300; moreover, many regional seminaries have been built.〔Evangelii 6〕
