Abstract

The writer contends that the church in mission to needy neighbors contributes to the ecumenical task of the church. Orthopraxy as well as orthodoxy contributes to the quest for unity. The writer employs a methodology first proposed by liberation theologian Gustavo Gutierrez, namely, doing critical reflection upon the praxis of people in light of the Word of God. Using extensive quotations from interviews, the writer critically reflects upon a local, social, and ecumenical ministry in light of seven Matthean themes present in Matthew 25:31-46.
