News
On this Gold Star Mother’s and Family’s Day, we solemnly honor the memory of every lost Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine, and Coast Guardsman, and we humbly grieve with their families who persevere with remarkable courage, strength, and grace.
Today, and every day, we hold in our hearts those who have answered the knock on the door, accepted the flag folded with precision, said their final farewell, and borne the absence of their fallen hero.
Meet our 707 COR Leadership Team!

Season of Creation Day 27:
THE UNITY OF ALL THINGS
Take a moment to reflect on the photos.
The Human Brain
Amazingly, there are almost the same number of neurons in the brain as there are stars in the Milky Way Galaxy. Each brain cell has several thousand finger-like projections extending from both ends that connect and communicate with neighboring brain cells. These connections are called synapses, and billions of new ones are created each second in the early years of life! Babies are born with nearly 100 billion neurons, which is all the brain cells they will ever need.

Psalm 19:1-4
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech without words; night after night they reveal knowledge.
It is the day of days when the hearts eye opens to the unity of all things.
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Today look for the unity of all things. See the worlds interconnectedness. Ask the spirit to help you discern how can you be a good steward of the unity of all things?

Brothers and sisters:
If there is any encouragement in Christ,
any solace in love,
any participation in the Spirit,
any compassion and mercy,
complete my joy by being of the same mind, with the same love,
united in heart, thinking one thing.
Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory;
rather, humbly regard others as more important than yourselves,
each looking out not for his own interests,
but also for those of others.
Have in you the same attitude
that is also in Christ Jesus.
Phil 2:1-5

TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Still time to change your mind
One of the lovely things about having a mind is that you can change it. A working brain takes in new information, reflects on it, and makes connections. Sometimes the result is a revised perspective on ideas you thought were chiseled in stone. People of faith also pray for wisdom and inspiration, which can be troubling prayers to have answered if you’re banking on the status quo. Jesus told his followers that folks they had counted out of the circle of grace were being counted in by God. A thoughtful faith will be able to absorb the divine curveballs.
TODAY'S READINGS: Ezekiel 18:25-28; Philippians 2:1-11; Matthew 21:28-32
“Son, go out and work in the vineyard today.’ He said in reply, ‘I will not.’”
#takefiveforfaith
It's been said, Lord,
that your first language is
silence...
If that's the truth, and I believe it is,
it's no wonder
I sometimes have trouble hearing you!
There's so much, too much noise in my life:
in my mind and in my thoughts,
and in my heart and soul -
too many sounds competing for my attention,
too much noise distracting me,
leaving me to the quiet, silent peaceful sound
of your presence and your word...
So I'm praying today, Lord,
for some silence in my day:
a time and place set apart
just to be quiet,
to listen for your silent presence
filling my mind,
calming my thoughts
and bringing me peace...
(Take a moment to ponder and plan
where that place might be in your life today...)
I pray, Lord, that today
you'll quiet my heart
til the only sound I hear
is my heart beating,
the heart you gave me, the place
where you dwell in me:
my heart, open to your heart
beating with the rhythm of your presence
and your peace...
I pray today, Lord, that you'll
quiet my soul:
tame my anxiety,
calm my fears,
temper my passions,
compose my mixed emotions,
heal my wounds,
smooth my jagged edges,
ease my heart's burdens
and then
soothe,
soften,
mend,
heal,
and drench my heart in your mercy,
making peace
between my heart and yours
until our two hearts, yours and mine,
are one,
held together, beating together
in a silence broken only
by your loving word
and my heart's word of thanks...
Amen.
❤️❤️🙏🙏
Just perfect.
Beautiful

MEMORIAL OF COSMAS AND DAMIAN, MARTYRS
Saints for this season
Today’s brother physicians are patron saints to a long list of healthcare workers, and also against plagues. A brief year ago, biblical references to plagues and epidemics seemed quaint and far removed. Our eyes have been opened to the enduring force of such outbreaks, however, and Cosmas and Damian truly become saints for our time. Perhaps even more so when we learn they were Arab physicians from the area now called Syria. Healing role models come from all backgrounds. Thank the frontline healthcare workers in your own town. They are likely from diverse backgrounds as well.
Today's readings: Ecclesiastes 11:9-12:8; Luke 9:43b-45
“Fill us at daybreak with your kindness.” #takefiveforfaith
Twin brothers, Saints Cosmas and Damian were born in Arabia. Eminent for their practice of medicine and reputation for giving free medical care. The practice of charity and service to their neighbor exemplified that it is possible to live the gospel, especially Matthew 25.
Season of Creation Day 26:

“Remind me in countless ways, as I walk the sunlit hours of this day, that I am on a sacred journey. Grant me the grace to look with respect upon all I will meet this day and upon every event I encounter. Mindful that I am a pilgrim, may I treat each and every one with reverence and love, as a manifestation of you to whom I journey. May the work of my hands be part of the redemption of the world and its eternal springtime liberation.”
- Prayers for a Planetary Pilgrim by Edward Hays
The English word “Mass” comes from the Latin word missa, which means to be “sent.” Sent, into the world, with the mission of Christ.
What kind of world do we want to leave to those who come after us, to children?
— Laudato Si', Pope Francis
Which of your five senses brings you the most gratitude for creation?

Rejoice, O young man, while you are young
and let your heart be glad in the days of your youth.
Follow the ways of your heart,
the vision of your eyes;
Yet understand that as regards all this
God will bring you to judgment.
Ward off grief from your heart
and put away trouble from your presence,
though the dawn of youth is fleeting.
Remember your Creator in the days of your youth...
Ecclesiastes 11:9
