Jesus took Peter, John, and James and went up the mountain to pray. While he was praying his face changed in appearance and his clothing became dazzling white. And behold, two men were conversing with him, Moses and Elijah, who appeared in glory and spoke of his exodus that he was going to accomplish in Jerusalem.Then from the cloud came a voice that said, “This is my chosen Son; listen to him.” (Lk 9:28b-36)

The Transfiguration invites us to LISTEN. In a noisy world like ours, listening to the Lord can be a real challenge. Perhaps it helps to know that the Lord LISTENS to us. We continue our prayers for Pope Francis.
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.
Sunday II, Lent
