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.

XXX ORDINARY SUNDAY

XXX ORDINARY SUNDAY

Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 126)
R. The Lord has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.
Restore our fortunes, O LORD,
    like the torrents in the southern desert.
Those that sow in tears
    shall reap rejoicing.
R. The Lord has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.

Joy is the proper response to the gift of salvation . . . and of course, as Bartimaeus discovered when he had an encounter with our great high priest and received his sight . . . not only joy, but he followed Christ on The Way.
