We hear people bemoan the closing of churches in America, and the growth of other faiths across the world- all wondering why, and who is to blame.
WE are to blame! We believers of Christ who are not throwing all of ourselves into doing His work- We are not sharing the Gospel in love as we should, we are not loving our neighbors as we should, we are not taking care of the least of these as we should.
Would that the members of the Church do as Christ commands and do it readily and with passion! Then would new churches be opening and our pews be filled, then would the Word go forth into the world and take new root!
Are you doing your part? Or are you sitting by, being a Sunday Christian, a "what is in it for me Christian" or political Christian? Christ has called you to higher things!
God's grace be with you,
Fr. Charles
