Evening: Psalm 107:1-32; Mark 9:2-13
St. Paul speaks about a way of understanding community ... as being like a body. He calls the Church the Body of Christ, because it has many members, many gifts, which, when joined together, and when every member is playing his or her part, as in an orchestra, something beautiful occurs. Such a community is an astounding combination of gifts, all interacting wonderfully as one. But still more excellent than this is when all of it happens in the presence of love. Without love, even a gifted community is nothing. Love is what makes us Christ’s Body.
