Pope Francis on Unity in the Body of Christ

“‘The Church is not an charitable, cultural or political association, but a living Body, that walks and acts in history. And this Body has a head, Jesus, who guides, nourishes and supports it’, said Pope Francis [recently] as he continued his series of lessons on the Creed . . . .”

A recent Vatican Radio broadcast reported on this reflection of Pope Francis on the Body of Christ, including how the Church must remain bound ever more deeply to Jesus and how, in the Church, there is a variety, a diversity of tasks and functions, and the richness of the gifts that the Holy Spirit distributes – and, also, communion and unity with all coming together to form one living body, deeply connected to Christ.
