On this mountain the LORD of hosts will provide for all peoples, A feast of rich food and choice wines, juicy, rich food and pure, choice wines. On this mountain he will destroy
the veil that veils all peoples, The web that is woven over all nations; he will destroy death forever. The Lord GOD will wipe away the tears from all faces; The reproach of his people he will remove from the whole earth; for the LORD has spoken. (Is 25:6-10)

The Advent visions of the prophet Isaiah continue with the banquet of the Kingdom which is for all peoples, no one left out. The challenge is to be as open to others as God’s arms are for us all. Saint NIcholas (270-343) was an early church bishop who was committed to protecting children and all those in need.
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.
