Welcome

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.

Thursday, Week XXI, Ordinary Time

Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 90)

R. Fill us with your love, O Lord, and we will sing for joy!
Fill us at daybreak with your kindness,
that we may shout for joy and gladness all our days.
And may the gracious care of the LORD our God be ours;
prosper the work of our hands for us!
Prosper the work of our hands!
R. Fill us with your love, O Lord, and we will sing for joy!

What a joyful psalm! To be filled with the love of the Lord . . . to shout for joy and gladness all our days. And the final petition: Prosper the work of our hands! The work of our hands is to build a world of justice where everyone can find a place at the table of the human family.
