The church is called catholic because it is open and intended for anyone. The presence of the Church during the Covid-19 Pandemic should really be felt in the life of faith, especially for Catholic students who have migrated to Malang. The church must not shut down and avoid the needs of God's people, despite the compelling circumstances of the era. The church must be committed to God's mission in a creative way, which is to spread the gospel throughout the world. In research on the presence of the church in the pandemic time Covid-19 for belief life, overseas catholic students in Malang will use the questionnaire method to obtain data. The questionnaire is for Catholic students who have migrated to Malang. The results of the study showed that most of the Catholic students understand about the Corona Virus Pandemic and most of them live in rented houses. The church still feels that it continues to try to greet them even though the situation is not supportive, even for students who migrate to Malang. Students actually feel a sense of abandonment because of a pandemic that never ends and which causes church life to not return to normal soon.

Church ministry to post-modern city dwellers The world today is characterised by postmodernism and urbanisation. Both these processes have a serious impact on the world as we know it – on social life, and also on the ministry of the church. Working from a practical-theological foundation, the church is defined as a “called community of believers”. The issue, however, is how this community should effectively and practically live out their faith in an urbanised post-modern world. This issue is investigated and suggestions in this regard are made.

People With Impairments

One of the demands facing the church is the call for unity with Christians with profound intellectual and physical impairments. As the church becomes a community of justice with and for people with impairments, she is an instrument of God's shalom. However, too many of our sisters and brothers with impairments find themselves on the outside looking in. How can the church continue to move toward a more complete welcome and participation? Responding to this theological question precedes clinical or legal concerns. The best the world has to offer is not what the church needs, though she can learn from reasonable professional approaches. The message and peace of Christ can undo the walls of separation that keep Christians with impairments out. Such a transformation would be a sign that the church is being built up in peace, and would offer a model of true communion among a diversity of people.

In this article the instruction Donum veritatis on the vocation of the theologian in the Church, published by the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith on 24th May 1990, is treated as the benchmark for the undertaken reflection on the ecclesial and scientific dimension of theology. This document still constitutes an abundant source of guidelines concerning theology and the way in which it should be pursued by each and every Catholic theologian. The instruction draws the attention primarily to a personal vocation of the theologian who remains in the service of the fellowship of God’s People. It results from the very nature of the truth revealed by God which was mercifully conveyed to man so as to bring him to salvation. The gift of truth defines the nature of theology which is a scientific service to God’s truth and by the same token also to God’s People. One of the key elements of this service is the cooperation with the Magisterium of the Catholic Church while preserving its own autonomy. The principle of complementarity is a key factor in this respect and it also determines the ecclesial character of fulfi lling the vocation of the theologian.

Our life as the Christen in the community ecclesial is the announcement about God, which gives the people the gifts of love, freedom, friendship and truth. Through the forgiveness and the activity of the salvation of God, love and friendship in man’s life makes the human world more divine. This Jesus accents in His proclamation about the kingdom divine, specially in the parables, where He presents the model of the world based on love, hope, faith and freedom as the world of deeds based on God. Therefore, with the power of God’s Spirit, man has to make his life based on the norm of divine, because only in God, with God and through God exists for man the possibility to life now on earth, and afterwards in the future in heaven. In this situation, the answer of the man of faith has to be the motivation to take up the “deed” of the renovation of self-life and the imitation of God. This constitutes as the Christian thought that the central point of the theological interpretation of the value of salvation is realized – hic et nun – as the historical and existential value of the human life in the right of the kingdom divine. The proclamation of Jesus about the “new life”, presents to man the values of the divine existence in the spiritual of the Church. On one hand, it is the gift of freedom and the liberation from sin, where the love of God is absolutely necessary. On the other hand, the “new life” opens for man the space of liberty of life, where God forgives the human offences and the sins, both past and present. Well now the resume of the call to imitate God is the acceptance of the divine gift, which changes the man himself, and all the people, who seek the help and good councils to live the norm divine. These witnesses in the human mentality the consciousness of the existence based on the divine laws, which have in themselves the dimension eschatological.

The research objective that the author means is to find out how the unity of the body of Christ in the church can be carried out properly according to 1 Corinthians 3: 3-9. moving on from the core written in the text above, the author wants the whole congregation to understand the unity of the body of Christ correctly today, given the importance of the unity of the body of Christ in the church, so that some of the more mature congregations in the faith must support the congregation that is not yet mature faith. This writing is intended so that all God's people understand well that the unity of the body of Christ is not to become divided because of disagreements, divisions and differences of opinion. but the body of Christ is the one that brings God's people better together. Some of the things that concern the author in this study are how the congregation can understand the unity of the body of Christ correctly.

The gift of the Holy Spirit to the disciples in John’s Gospel, expressed in the so-called Paraclete sayings (John 14–16), indicates that certain capacities will be given to the disciples of Jesus Christ for the benefit of their witness to the world. This article reflects on these pneumatological texts, brings them into conversation with the discourse of public theology, that is, theology that seeks to address issues in the public domain of wider civil society, outside the sphere of the church. In particular, by taking the metaphor of ‘walking alongside’, this study explores the ways these texts inform the manner in which Renewal (Pentecostal and Charismatic) Christians, believing in the empowerment of the Holy Spirit for service to the world, may frame their pneumatology of engagement for the sake of others.
