And when the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the unfading crown of glory. (1 Pt 5:1-4)

Always a good reminder to clergy-types that the Chief Shepherd is the Lord. Today would have been my mom’s 95th birthday. We made lots of wonderful trips together—most memorable was our trip to Rome and our adventure in the Scavi under Saint Peter’s Basilica. We parked her wheelchair at the entrance, and she made it down all the steps and narrow passageways, all the way to the tomb of Saint Peter. Today’s picture is of my mom at Mass with the successor of Saint Peter.
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.
