Fusion Corps’ 2023 Charged Up Kickoff!

January 10, 2023 | Announcements, Media

Fusion Corps’ 2023 Charged Up Kickoff was amazing! Starting off with some donuts and coffee, the team viewed the game announcement live and then split into small groups after lunch, already brainstorming ideas for this year’s robot. Then Fusion Corps hit the ground running…literally! Members and Alumni alike participated in dodgeball to get their minds flowing and to have fun with their teammates. Finally, each small group presented their own version of their robot and the team then moved on to a Needs vs Wants discussion to close the day. Thanks again to all of the alumni and mentors who showed up and helped! We’re only a few days in, but our team is working hard to make this year’s season as good as last’s. Go Fusion Corps!

‘The Lord is with you’

Gabriel is not the first messenger of the LORD to greet someone with the phrase “The LORD is with you” (Lk 1:28). An anonymous angel hails Gideon, a young man from a poor and insignificant family, as the lad desperately hides his family’s wheat harvest from the marauding Midianites: “The LORD is with you, you mighty warrior!” (Jgs 6:12). Gideon then receives his commission to save Israel from the hand of its enemy and to be a judge over the 12 tribes.

Discerning Communion calls for truth in charity

Discerning whether to offer or receive Communion can be a challenge, spiritually and pastorally; but such discernment can always also be fruitful.

Hail Mary, full of grace

St. Luke gives us the angel Gabriel’s annunciation greeting to Mary as “Chaire, kecharitōmenē” (Lk 1:28). There are thrilling grammatical and theological mysteries packed into these two Greek words.
