Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 69)
R. Lord, in your great love, answer me.
“See, you lowly ones, and be glad;
you who seek God, may your hearts revive!
For the LORD hears the poor,
and his own who are in bonds he spurns not.”
R. Lord, in your great love, answer me.

The perils of the prophet Jeremiah, the tragic imprisonment and death of John the Baptist—as the Psalmist says, the Lord hears the poor and never spurns those in bonds. The Virgin Mary calls us all to magnify the Lord with her. And so we call out in faith: Lord, in your great love, answer me.
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.
