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.

Saints Joachim and Anne, parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary, July 26

Responsorial Psalm        (Ps 79)
R.  For the glory of your name, O Lord, deliver us.
Then we, your people and the sheep of your pasture,
will give thanks to you forever;
through all generations we will declare your praise.

R.  For the glory of your name, O Lord, deliver us.

The World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly is always close to the feast of the parents of the Virgin Mary. Although their names come to us only from early Christian legends, the truth is that the Lord did have grandparents. And that’s a comforting thought. And so, we give thanks and continue to declare God’s praise through all generations.
