The Fab 6

Rockhurst is a place to make memories and a place full of traditions. These past three years, I’ve made some traditions of my own. One of my favorite traditions is my weekly meeting with my CLC (Christian Life Community). This is an organization sponsored by Campus Ministry that encourages students to reflect on a weekly basis. My group gets together to share in faith and express anything that may be troubling us. I love my time with Kaylie, Andrea, Tori, Jessi, and Anna every week because we are a support system for one another.

I was chosen as a CLC leader my sophomore year and was given a group of 6 girls to lead. Some leaders have a smaller sized group and others have a mixed gender group. Despite the variety of groups, mine is perfect. All of us have different personalities, but that’s what makes our chemistry so special. We have different friend groups, but there are things we share in our CLC that we wouldn’t necessarily do with our other friends. Aside from the heart-to-hearts we have, it’s nice to devote time to our faith and center ourselves. We take this time every week to reflect on a moment where we felt closest to God. This helps us realize that there is something beautiful in every day.

I feel truly blessed to know these girls because they’ve played a vital role in my college experience. I thank Rockhurst and Campus Ministry for offering this program because it’s grown to be so important to me. I know we will continue our traditions and can’t wait for our future traditions that’ll live on past the “Rockhurst days.”
