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.

You have been told what the LORD requires of you: Only to act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6:8)

This is probably the best known quote from all the Prophets thanks to Catholic sisters; for every Catholic sister I have ever known has had this verse carved on her heart.
