John Chuchman writes:
My Church
ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, APOSTOLIC
ONE
Not in structure, organization, culture, or practice,
but as Jesus, in Love and Forgiveness.
HOLY
Not in common external signs of piety, but in the pursuit of
internal Spiritual Growth.
CATHOLIC
Not as members of one universal organization,
but reaching out to serve ALL peoples of the world,
especially the marginalized.
APOSTOLIC
Not in physical lineage to the Apostles,
but living in the Holy Spirit as bestowed on them.
ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, APOSTOLIC
Not in a limiting or exclusive sense,
but in an Expanding and Inclusive sense.
