abiding in the body

leaders in the ministry
all those in the flock
Abiding in the body
defined by the love of Christ…
 
shepherds, sheep, pilgrims,
disciples in the flesh
abiding within the body
Communing with one another
defined by the love of Christ…
 
living in community
as exiles on the earth
Servant leaders, shepherds,
defined by the love of Christ…
