People will come from the east and the west and from the north and the south and will recline at table in the Kingdom of God. (Lk 13:22-30)

What a powerful image of the Eucharist. I’m so grateful to have celebrated and attended Masses with communities of faith in other countries. As the old hymn sings: In Christ there is no east or west, in him no south or north, but one great fellowship of love throughout the whole wide earth!

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.
