There is only one Church, in this Church, there are different parishes, if this is what you mean.I wonder if there is a differece in people having different gifts and different churches haveing different gifts also.
So that each church would have a different place in the body of Christ?
The answer to your question is to be found best in the following Bible passage:
“To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit. To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom; to another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit; to another discernment of spirits; to another varieties of tongues; to another interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing them individually to each person as he wishes.”
1 Corinthians 12:7-11
