These reflections are a result of more than 40 years of ministry as a Roman Catholic priest. Most of these years I spent in the Diocese of Charlotte which covers Western North Carolina. Now I am retired, and live in Medellín, Colombia where I continue to serve as a priest in the Archdiocese of Medellín.

Tuesday, Week XVI, Ordinary Time

Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the LORD:
    I will sing to the LORD, for he is gloriously triumphant;
 horse and chariot he has cast into the sea. (Exodus 14:21-15:1)

One of the most thrilling songs (psalms) in the Scriptures, especially in the context of the Easter Vigil. “¡Carroza y caballo arrojó al mar!” (Horse and chariot he has cast into the sea!)
