In Christian usage, the word "Church" designates the Liturgical Assembly, 141 but also the local Community 142 or the whole Universal commUnity of Believers. 143 These three Meanings are inseparable. "The Church" is the People that God gathers in the whole world. She exists in local communities and is made real as a liturgical, above all a Eucharistic, assembly. She draws her life from the word and the Body of Christ and so herself beComes Christ's Body.
