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.

R. With you is the fountain of life, O Lord. For with you is the fountain of life, and in your light we see light. R. With you is the fountain of life, O Lord. (Psalm 36)

When I was a kid we made a trip to Saint Augustine, Florida. We visited the Fort and we went to the Fountain of Youth. Supposedly, Ponce de Leon searched for the Fountain and according to local legend he found it in Saint Augustine. I remember we drank the water, but I don’t think it worked! What I was really searching for was not the Fountain of Youth, but rather the Fountain of Life.
