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.

Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 145)
R. I will praise your name for ever, Lord.
Let all your works give you thanks, O LORD, and let your faithful ones bless you. Let them discourse of the glory of your Kingdom and speak of your might.
R. I will praise your name for ever, Lord

I give thanks to God this Thanksgiving Day for my family of origin, for my Colombian family, for all of you my friends and for the opportunity to continue to serve the People of God. https://youtu.be/Q7cli3xy-tQ?si=ccrQ2KztCR7hzOI2
