Church is far more than an an occasional Baptism, Wedding or Funeral. It is the body of Christ on Earth, the fellowship of the faithful. A church congregation is that group of people who worship together and help one another learn and practice the Faith. The members of the congregation are baptized and confirmed. They regularly receive the Mystery of Holy Communion. They repent for their shortcomings which offend God's Law. They seek God's help and the help of their fellow Christians to do better.
