What Is the Church? An Explanation for Kids
1 Corinthians 12:12-27
Turn to page 1806 in your Catholic Children's Bible. Read 1 Corinthians 12:12-27
THE BODY OF CHRIST
So, the Church (that is the people in it) are also known as the Body of Christ. No, we are not the bread and wine like in the Eucharist. HOWEVER, we are a group of people that come together to worship, pray and bring the Good News of Jesus to others. Think of your school. As a student of your school you are part of what is known as "the student body." As Catholics, we are part of Jesus' (Christ's) Church, so we are also part of what is called "The Body of Christ."
READ PAGE 1809 IN YOUR CATHOLIC CHILDREN'S BIBLE TO READ WHAT RICH IS TALKING ABOUT
So, it is great to be part of the Church. HOWEVER, we can't just be watchers or spectators. We have to be "doers" in our church. We have to use our gifts. Listen to Douglas explain what Rich means.
