Brothers and sisters, Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God. Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ. (1 Cor 10:31-11:1)

As we prepare to enter Lent this week, Saint Paul reminds us to do “do everything for the glory of God.” The Imitation of Christ is a key element of Christian Spirituality. As we seek to follow Christ by living as He lived, by loving as He loved, by caring for the poor, the suffering, the hungry and the sick, let us touch the world with our hands and our heart so that Christ may truly live in us, we in Him.
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.
