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.

Wednesday, Week V, Lent (Passiontide)

Nebuchadnezzar exclaimed, "Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who sent his angel to deliver the servants who trusted in him; they disobeyed the royal command and yielded their bodies rather than serve or worship any god except their own God." (Dn 3:14-20, 91-92, 95)

I grew up with the story of the three youths in the fiery furnace singing the praises of God. The Canticle of the Three Youths is a favorite. The Canticle goes on to invite all creation, including mountains and hills, dolphins and all water creatures, beasts wild and tame, to give “glory and praise forever!”
