We are Many Members but One Body
January 7th, 2022.
We are many members but one body.
The hand cannot say to the foot, “I have no need of you,” and the head cannot say to the feet, “I have no need of you.”
A body is a body and not divided into members.
If it were, that body would not be a body but many bodies.
Now, already there are many members, yet one body.
The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you.”
Nor can the head say to the feet, “I have no need of you.”
Just as the hand cannot say to the body, “I have no need of you.”
Nor can the feet say to the head, “I have no need of you.”
We are many members but one body.
We are made to help one another.
In a world full of noise, it can be difficult to hear each other. So we stay curious, ask tough questions and listen with the intent of understanding the other person. We make bold statements that bring us together in our diversity, but we never lose sight of what we have in common.

We are made to help one another.
We are diverse, but not too different. We ask tough questions with curiosity and listen with the intent of understanding the other person. We know that together, we're stronger.

The world is full of noise. It can be difficult to hear each other. So we stay curious and ask tough questions with the intent of understanding one another's points of view.
We make bold statements by bringing people together in their diversity, but never lose sight of what we have in common.
We are many members but one body.
We are made to help one another.
Because we are many members but one body, we have many things to say and to think, but we cannot say and think everything individually.
It is not a matter of each person standing on his own feet, but that we work together in our own strengths. If there is a member of the body that lacks any of the qualities that make up the body, the whole body will suffer as a result.
We are many members but one body.
We are made to help one another.
We try to understand the gifts that each one of us has received and exercise them accordingly. So it is with us: the various parts of our being depend on one another and help each other, so that all our members are integrated into one body.
We are many members but one body.
We are made to help one another.
If at some time you hear something that you disagree with or that is not what you want to hear, please understand that there are other times when you will hear from us what is in harmony with your hopes.
If you find anything that is not good, please you should do things that are good. All of us were made by God our Father and redeemed by Christ his son to be a sign of contradiction against all the powers of this world; we have come together under the banner of the cross to fight for the deliverance of our brothers and sisters who still remain in slavery and to proclaim the year of the Lord ’s favor, and we shall certainly do this.
We are many members but one body.
We are made to help one another.
Because we are many members but one body, we have many things to say and to think, but we cannot say and think everything individually.
We are many members but one body. We make many different sounds, but we are all one voice. We may have different experiences, but we all feel the same pain and happiness. Each of us is special and unique, but together we are one. This is how we will change the world.
We are many members but one body.
We are made to help one another.
Don't say we are different and refuse to help others because we are made to be helpful to one another.
We are many members but one body.
We are made to help one another.
