The second last post on this blog quotes an Australian archbishop who spoke at the International Eucharist Congress in Dublin yesterday.
I asked two work colleagues to comment on the quote. One said that he completlely disagreed with it and the other said that she would never take into consideration anything the Catholic Church had to say on human sexuality.
It is the mission of the church to bear witness to the Word of God, to convince people about God and God's love for mankind.
The church is always mandated to live and speak God's Word in love, in justice, in kindness.
The church surely can never sound arrogant or pompous.
Above all else the Church's mission is one of service.
