I, John, looked and heard the voices of many angels who surrounded the throne and the living creatures and the elders. They were countless in number, and they cried out in a loud voice: “Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power and riches, wisdom and strength, honor and glory and blessing.” (Rev 5:11-14)

THE MONTH OF MAY
I will be in Asheville May 2-8 and May 21-27. Starting tomorrow the daily reflection, the Orchid Ministry and the Sunday Mass on Facebook will be on vacation until Sunday, May 29. I will concelebrate the First Communion Mass at the Basilica of St Lawrence on Saturday, May 7 at 11:00 am. I will also celebrate Mass in English at St Eugene Parish on Saturday, May 7 at 5:30 pm and Mass in Spanish at St Eugene on Sunday, May 8 at 7:30 am. I hope to celebrate Mass in Spanish at the Basilica of St Lawrence on Sunday, May 22 at 4:00 pm. My time will be very limited so I hope to see you at Mass!
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.
