Healing the Body of Christ
We only have a Church when we have a reconciling Church - Forgiving each other and caring for one another.
The church has no light of its own. The only light is Jesus...
Jesus is - the sun who shines on the world - the light who overcomes darkness.
The church is like the moon - no light of its own - the moon reflecting the light of the sun (even at night) over the world.
So like the moon - we the Church - let us reflect Jesus to each other - Jesus the light of the world...
