I am very well supplied because of what I received from you through Epaphroditus, “a fragrant aroma,” an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.My God will fully supply whatever you need, in accord with his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. (Phil 4:10-19)

Captain Kangaroo taught children of my generation the magic words: please and thank you. Saint Paul learned the lesson too. In one sense, his letter to the Philippians is one big “thank you.” The Virgin Mary also invites us to join her hymn of thanksgiving to God: My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord.
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.
