  1. The Church for me is…

The Church reminds me of a mystical body that continues to do the mission of Jesus here in this world. The visible structures of the Church facilitate the fulfillment of Christ’s mission effectively and tangibly. Of course, our members are both saints and sinners who journey together to the heavenly homeland.

  1. Church Leadership

In the recent years, I see a big mentality shift from the part of the clergy. I think that top-down structure of the church is slowly beginning to dissolve. We see pastors trying their best to serve the flock. Especially after the sex abuse scandal for which the clergy were accused, Churchmen have become humbler, more authentic and human.

  1. Are we what Jesus wanted us to be?

All that the Church does in order to establish the kingdom of God is really praiseworthy. The only one that disturbs me a bit is our division into various denominations. Christ desires one flock under one shepherd. But in general, the Church is discerning its way to understand what Christ wants it to be.
