"Grapes" by the Skating Friar, Br. Gabriel M. Cortes (Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate, Catholic speaker, singer, musician, Emmy-award winner and Motherboard sponsored skater.)
Grape Deck: The vine and cluster of grapes refer the mind back to the words of the Lord who said: “I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, bears much fruit; for without me you can do nothing” John 15:5. It also points to the Eucharistic species of Wine which becomes the Blood of Christ which we consume during Holy Communion. The Biblical quote chosen to be on the board highlights the powerful intercession of the mother of the messiah who initiated the public ministry. She who is the “Stump of Jesse” Isaiah 11:1 and from this stump the vine has come forth. “The Mother of Jesus said to him: they have no wine” John 2:3
Latin: Dicit mater Jesu ad eum: Vinum non habent. John 2:3
