PRACTICE STEPS:

CHURCH

/CHərCH/

a community of believers who gather for worship, fellowship, and religious instruction. It can refer to both the physical place where these gatherings occur and the spiritual community of Christians worldwide. The church is often seen as the body of Christ, with each member playing a unique role in serving God and others.
