Our identity

Cor ad Cor

A women's household at Ave Maria University

Members of Cor ad Cor live our lives seeking out full communion with the Sacred Heart of Jesus through the Blessed Sacrament. Not only do we know of the Lord’s love for us, but we personally strive for an intimate relationship with Jesus in the Eucharist. Through surrender and receptivity to His Will and His Love, our hearts will be tied to His in perfect union. Through generosity, we give the love that the Lord has given to us to others and strive to be living tabernacles of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. By this, we radiate His Love from the Adoration Chapel into the world. We stand out for our love and joy in the Lord. We humbly desire to be perfect images of His love, so that when others look at us, they no longer see us, but only Him. We pray daily that His Heart will “be the Heart of our hearts.”

Membership

How to join

At the heart of the Cor ad Cor intent process is the fostering of a personal openness to grow deeper in love with the Lord's Sacred Heart through the Eucharist. This process is a time for the intent to be able to be so close to the Sacred Heart of Jesus that she will become intertwined with His Divine Love. So that she may be able to be more completely united with Jesus and to become a living tabernacle of His most Sacred Heart. Please join us for at least one of our open meetings. After that, you can send in a letter of intent into our intent coordinator.
