We were indeed buried with him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might live in newness of life. If, then, we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him. (Rom 6:3-4, 8-11)

Baptism is the first step on our journey with Christ who calls us by name and plunges us into the mystery of his dying and rising. As the First Letter of Peter reminds us, we are a “chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,” called to sing the praises of the One who has called us out of darkness into God’s wonderful light.
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.
