A church is a proverb

 A church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints.
  Abigail van Buren

 A church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints.
  Abigail van Buren

 They say there's a heaven for those who will wait. Some say it's better, but I say it ain't. I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints. Sinners are much more fun...
  Billy Joel

 I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints - The sinners are much more fun
  Billy Joel

 The saints are the sinners who keep on going
  Robert Louis Stevenson

 Saints need sinners.
  Alan Watts

 As no roads are so rough as those that have just been mended, so no sinners are so intolerant as those that have just turned saints

 We understand there are conflicts that sometimes leave people feeling hurt by others in the church, or other situations which have left people feeling isolated. Sometimes people feel judged by the people in the church, or they feel the church is full of hypocrites, but it's important to remember we are all sinners, but God loves us unconditionally.

 MedOne is part of the Roman Catholic identity of St. Joseph Hospital, so when you speak about a church, you can define it in many ways, ... A church can be a building, and it can also be an organization of ministries that provide for the spiritual well-being of people ... for me the whole sense of 'church' is much broader than the four walls in which you go to worship.

 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners? / When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

 In matters of politics and government, the church maintains a policy of remaining neutral institutionally. Latter-day Saints are taught to support their local and national governments, but the church does not endorse candidates, parties or platforms.

 You cherish and nurture the Saints. The Saints play with You, O Sustainer of the World. Your Saints are very dear to You. You are the breath of life of the Saints.

 The church saves sinners, but science seeks to stop their manufacture.
  Elbert Hubbard

 The Fire Department called the Red Cross, and they put us up in a hotel for a few nights, and we called our bishop at our church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on McCollum Road in Bentonville), and the people from there have been helping us.

 God creates out of nothing. Wonderful you say. Yes, to be sure, but he does what is still more wonderful: he makes saints out of sinners.
  Soren Kierkegaard
