Dear blog,
Was just looking through a facebook of a close friend of mine the pictures of Stella Maris Church in Bintulu, wow! like WOW! The Whole Church is filled with "the Body of the Church", dances, traditional clothing, the presence of His Lordship, seminarians and cg, was really impressed by the response but somehow deep down in my heart i can only sense the People but not the CHURCH. Now, what do i mean by that? As we all know, the Church is not only made up of the building but also made up with the People, but even though the people comes to participate in the Sacrificial Feast of the Immaculate Lamb, if the meaning is still to just either to celebrate that we have a "new church", or "since the Bishop is there" or even to just come for the "dances" or just "forced" to come, don't you think there's something wrong there? People, the meaning? Where's God there? True, His Lordship is the head of the Episcopate but we don't come to celebrate mass because of HIM, but because of Jesus, the Holy Victim!
That's all!
