Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said to him, “You are lacking in one thing. Go, sell what you have, and give to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.” At that statement, his face fell, and he went away sad, for he had many possessions. (Mk 10:17-27)

The challenge of discipleship—to leave behind whatever holds us back so that we can follow Him. We continue to pray for peace and for the Ukrainian people. Today we have music from St George Ukrainian Catholic Church, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Today's photo is of the Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral in Kyiv, completed in 2011.
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.
