“Many people think they don’t need to walk into a Church to encounter God, but you can only (truly) touch God in the Church. God could have called down from Heaven and forgiven all sins and welcomed humanity back into Paradise, but God chose instead to take on flesh and touch humanity. There are many ways to call out to God, but only one way to touch God. When the Precious Body and Blood of Christ touches your lips, your sins are forgiven and you are healed, because the touch of God heals and you live forever.”
