Mark 12:29-31 You shall love your neighbor as yourself. with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,
Jesus tells his disciples (and us) that the greatest commandment is to LOVE God with all our heart and soul, all our mind and all our strength and to love our neighbor.
We love God with our heart and soul when we spend time in prayer talking and listening, when we share our joys and our struggles, when we express our gratitude for blessings received, when we seek forgiveness of our sins, when we remember that God is with us always.
We love God with our minds when we seek out wisdom and knowledge about the world God created, when we learn about the human body and brain, when we grow in awareness and understanding of other cultures, when we spend time learning about Scripture, the Saints, and teachings of the Apostles.
We love God with our strength by loving our neighbor in tangible ways, by feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, healing the sick, visiting the prisoners, welcoming the stranger and forgiving sinners. We love God with our strength when we work to change unjust systems, when we care for the earth, and when we sacrifice our own comfort for the needs of others.
Our campusministry mission at St Ambrose is to build a welcoming community of Faith Learning Justice, a community of Ambrosians who love God with all their heart, mind and strength! Together let us grow in love.
