He invited Franciscan and Jesuit preachers to conduct Billy Graham-style crusades on Milan's streets, and in a city with more than 1,000 churches, added at least ten each year -primarily in the new suburbs. For Montini, the missionary task was to conquer through Christian love those "unhappy ones who gather behind Marx," to reassure them that, as Jesus "still loves them strongly, immensely, divinely," so the church supports "the profound need for a new and worthwhile...
