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.

Sunday VI, Easter—Mother’s Day

Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 66)
R. Let all the earth cry out to God with joy. Alleluia.
"Let all on earth worship and sing praise to you,
sing praise to your name!"
R. Let all the earth cry out to God with joy. Alleluia.

Today we honor our mothers and all those who have mothered us in our lives, and our hearts are filled with joy. Saint Augustine, who was devoted to his own mother, Monica who had died, reminded his community: “We are an Easter people, and Alleluia is our song.” So Happy Mother’s Day—Alleluia, Alleluia!
