COR Meeting - April 27th
2024-04-27 12:30 - 14:30
Third COR meeting – April 27th
12:30- 2:30 – Housey Hall
With hearts full of reverence, we invite you to a profound exploration of faith at the third COR meeting this coming Saturday, April 27th from 12:30-2:30 in the Lower Hall.
As we gather in the spirit of our core Columbian values – Charity, Unity, Fraternity, and Patriotism – we will embark on a prayerful journey through the Gospel of John 15:1-8, the designated reading for the Fifth Sunday of Easter.
This beautiful passage invites us to consider the profound analogy of the True Vine. Here, Christ is presented as the very source of life and spiritual nourishment, and we, His disciples, are likened to branches dependent on Him for growth, strength, and the ability to bear fruit. Through the time-honored practice of Lectio Divina, we will contemplate this symbolism, drawing profound insights to nourish our faith and deepen our relationship with Christ.
In answering the Holy Spirit’s call, we are reminded that our core identity lies in following Christ.
Through Lectio Divina, we will explore how this metaphor of the True Vine resonates deeply with this foundation, offering us profound insights to guide our service to others.

Unity in Christ: Just as branches on a vine are unified by the lifeblood of the living vine, drawing sustenance from the same source, we, bound together as Knights of Columbus by our faith in Christ, are further united in this shared foundation. Through Lectio Divina, we will explore how this deeper unity strengthens our Christian fellowship and allows us to better serve our communities as instruments of God’s love.
Charity through Christ’s Love: As the vine nourishes the branches for fruitfulness, Christ’s love empowers us to bear good fruit through charitable works. This reflection will inspire us to live out our core value of Charity with renewed purpose.
Strength in Faith: A branch draws strength from the vine to weather storms. By deepening our understanding of Christ’s teachings, we will be better equipped to face challenges and uphold our faith with unwavering strength.

This sacred exploration promises not only personal enrichment but also a deeper bond within our COR community. Through shared prayer, reflection, and open dialogue, we will be nourished by the Holy Spirit and grow closer to Christ and one another.
No prior experience with Lectio Divina is required.
Come with a spirit of reverence and a desire to be rooted more deeply in Christ alongside your brother Knights.
