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.

THURSDAY, WEEK IV of EASTER

THURSDAY, WEEK IV of EASTER

R. For ever I will sing the goodness of the Lord. The favors of the LORD I will sing forever; through all generations my mouth shall proclaim your faithfulness. R. For ever I will sing the goodness of the Lord. (Psalm 89)

Music transforms our lives. The church has always used music. As the Letter to the Ephesians encourages:

Address one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and playing to the Lord in your hearts. (Eph 5:19)

And as Saint Augustine said long ago: “The one who sings, prays twice!” May there always be a song in our hearts!
