"Taking Church wherever I go"

a member of The Mother Church

"I see more that one cannot really separate Church from life, or Church from the job one does or from the family, that Church is really a state of being within my own consciousness. I'm quite active in the high school where our son is going. I had a lot of things I didn't like too much. Suddenly it occurred to me that I had to bring Church there too, not just doing it in my church community, but to take Church with me everywhere I go, and to express those qualities like care, selflessness, love for others. The meaning of Church became much broader for me. It's a way of life. It's not dependent on a building or on a community. It's wherever we go."
