For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with great tenderness I will take you back. In an outburst of wrath, for a moment I hid my face from you; But with enduring love I take pity on you, says the Lord, your redeemer. Though the mountains leave their place and the hills be shaken, My love shall never leave you. (Is 54:1-10)

My love shall never leave you . . . that is the enduring love of our God. In a world where division and violence seem to hold sway, Advent proclaims God’s undying love for us in Christ whose coming we await with joyful hope.
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.
