Jesus answered them and said, “Do not work for food that perishes but for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him the Father, God, has set his seal." So they said to him, "What can we do to accomplish the works of God?" Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in the one he sent." (Jn 6:22-29)

The food that endures for eternal life . . . is the food that satisfies the deepest hungers of the human heart. The Lord reminds us that all are invited to his table, especially those no one else would invite. As the Conclave nears, we ask the Holy Spirit to help us: Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your Love. Amen.
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.
