Are not five sparrows sold for two small coins? Yet not one of them has escaped the notice of God. Even the hairs of your head have all been counted. Do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows. (Lk 12:1-7)

There’s an old spiritual that says the whole world is in God’s hands, that you and me, we’re cared for more than we’ll ever know. Is the human race simply a failed experiment? The gospel reminds us to not be afraid, in spite of all our failings, God’s hands still hold us and will never let us go.
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.
