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.

Wednesday, Week VI, Ordinary Time

The LORD said to himself, “Never again will I doom the earth because of man since the desires of man’s heart are evil from the start; nor will I ever again strike down all living beings, as I have done. As long as the earth lasts, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, Summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.” (Gen 8:6-13, 20-22)

The Lord’s covenant with creation is a poetic promise of salvation. Unfortunately, the human race seems bent on destroying the very home where we live. Maybe we need to re-read and appreciate the promise of Genesis and God’s covenant love.
