The Acts of an Apostolic Christian

The Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, Apostles provides lessons for the Church. One of the charateristics or marks of the Church is to be apostolic. To be apostolic is to be “sent forth” by Christ as members of His Church to the world. In one sense, it means the ministry of the Apostles and their successors, the Bishops. In another sense, all baptized Christians are called to engage in the mission of the Church according to their distinctive vocations.  The actions of an apostolic Church are to profess and practice the Faith. To be perfected by the Faith and to persevere in the Faith.
