    The topic is Our Lady of Fatima church, not the Church, you are talking about. If Iam not wrong one is a building and the other is spiritual, or body of associations.

    The four traditional "notes of the Christian Church" are unity, holiness, catholicity, and apostolicity.[2] In the phenomenological sense, there are many associations that call themselves Christian churches.

    Dear Mr.J.N. Lobo, Mumbai, Do I have to advertise, whether I have I helped build houses for the poor, like you do about the CSF and MD.???

    The Church is the Kingdom of God on Earth.
    Because she is a reflection of the ideal Kingdom of Heaven, Christ's Church on earth is called the Kingdom of God in the Holy Scriptures. In its regular usage, "kingdom" means a high degree of a society's development, a state with its law-making, legal, utive and all other authorities. A state consists of citizens, government, administration it has laws, customs, language, army and so on. The Church is also a Kingdom, and a peculiar one as she is filled with grace. She consists of people in the process of moral regeneration. Being a Kingdom, she has her Head, the Heavenly King, Lord Jesus Christ and also her own laws, internal structure, ministers (hierarchy), and citizens — faithful Christians. Without these features she would not be a kingdom, but something shapeless and vague. Christians enjoy all privileges of the spiritual Kingdom that they belong, but not merely as consumers but as active "citizens," co-working for the common good.
    The Holy Scripture speaks about the Church as a Kingdom of God in a number of places: Matthew 3:2, Matthew 4:17, Matthew 6:10, Matthew 6:33, Matthew 9:35, Matthew 18:3, Mark 10:14-15, Luke 12:32, Luke 17:21, John 3:5, John 18:36, Romans 14:17, 1 Corinthians 4:20, Colossians 1:12-22.

    Dear Mr. Felix F. and Mr. John Max, As per the SMS received by me yesterday from the Christian Secular Forum (CSF), the Mangalore Diocese is going to build 250 houses for the poor/homeless people. And that is true. The bulk of the expenses are from the contributions from the middle class community of Mangalore. Can you contribute a little amount from your 'Petro-dollars'/Saudi Riyals for this good cause?

    The need of the hour is more service to the poor and the needy.Also the upliftment of the downtrodden.
    Can the church take the lead in this?
