Campus Ministry Reflections
I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit. During the Bee Connected New Student Retreat held each September, we reflect on this Scripture reading and the importance of staying connected to Jesus, the Vine, during college. Jesus nourishes us through prayer, His Word and the sacraments. Our campus ministry efforts focus on providing these opportunities for our students to be nourished by the Vine. Even in the midst of the pandemic we were able to provide several meaningful retreat experiences, Adoration, the Rosary, both a men’s and women’s faith sharing group, service opportunities, Reconciliation, and most importantly, in person Masses at Christ the King Chapel. Nourished from the Vine, we hope to bear fruit that makes a difference at St. Ambrose and beyond. What a blessing it is to see signs of this fruit in our students and alumni who strive to live out our Catholic values in their families, in the workplace, and in the community. As commencement nears, and we send graduates out to bear fruit in the world, we pray that they stay connected not only to Christ, the Vine, but also to their St. Ambrose classmates, teammates, faculty and staff. -- Tammy
