ECCLESIAL MATURITY QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION AND DISCUSSION What does it mean to me, personally, to be "committed to the Church"? Why does the Pope insist that the movements and communities in the Church serve the Church best by being faithful to their founding grace and sharing with the Church from this grace.? How can we at Mother of God Community enter more deeply into this grace and learn to share it? What are the principles that should guide us in learning how to balance: Care for the family and care for the Community Participating in an active way in the life of the Community and sharing in the life of the Church at large? What are the obstacles to finding this balance? List the following in the order in which you think they are significant and add others that you consider important. A sense of betrayal (by the former leadership, by the community in general, by friends, by the Church, by God) A sense of fatigue, a lack of hope, a lack of zeal for holiness. A growing concern for other aspects of life: the family, the parish, friends, work, etc. A lack of focus: not enough prayer and Scripture, too much time on distractions, etc.
