Whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave.Just so, the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (Mt 20:20-28)

To serve and not be served is the hallmark of Christian ministry according to Jesus. Maybe one day as a church we will learn the lesson Jesus teaches. As the song says, Poder es servir, porque Dios es Amor (Power is to serve, because God is Love.)
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.
