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.

SATURDAY, WEEK XIV, ORDINARY TIME—Saint Benedict, Abbot, July 11

SATURDAY, WEEK XIV, ORDINARY TIME—Saint Benedict, Abbot, July 11

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? Who will go for us?” “Here I am,” I said; “send me!” (Is 6:8)

The call of the prophet Isaiah is remarkable for the eagerness with which the prophet responds, “Here I am, send me!” Today is the feast of Saint Benedict. The Rule for Monasteries which Benedict wrote invites us all to the school of the Lord’s service.

Today's picture is the mural of Saint Benedict from Saint Meinrad Archabbey in Indiana.
