What it means to Connect, Reach, and Build

Wednesday in the Fifth Week of Easter 

Fr. Ron reflects today on the pillars of St. Isidore, Connect with God; Reach Others; Build community.

Today’s gospel gives us an image what a community built on those pillars would look like when Jesus shares the words that he is the vine and we are the branches.

We can bear fruit only if we remain with Jesus. We can’t separate ourselves from him.

Fr. Ron encourages us to think about what branches look like. It’s hard to figure out where one ends and another begins. We are all connected and embrace each other if we embrace those pillars
