From the Director
Our Lady of Corpus Christi is dedicated to be a place where everyone can have a personal encounter with the Living God, the one who loves us passionately and personally. Jesus said: "I have come to set the world on fire!" We must allow Him to set our hearts on fire and then send us out in the power of the Holy Spirit to renew the face of the earth. We need God in our culture, in our communications, in our nation, in our homes and in our families. What we hope to accomplish at Our Lady of Corpus Christi is to give a place where we can enter into a deeper communion with God and to bring the Gospel to all nations. Either through our adoration chapel, masses, confessions, spiritual direction, retreats, or through any online activity, we pray, like our name suggests, in the spirit of Our Lady, that you would come to know the love of God made sacramentally present in the Most Holy Eucharist. In Jesus Christ through Mary, Fr. Brady Williams, SOLT Director of OLCC |
