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, ORDINARY TIME—Saint Scholastica, February 10

WEDNESDAY, WEEK V, ORDINARY TIME—Saint Scholastica, February 10

The LORD God formed man out of the clay of the ground
and blew into his nostrils the breath of life,
and so man became a living being.
(Gen 2:4b-9,15-17)

Today we begin the second story of creation. God creates humanity . . . and then decides to plant a garden so we could have something to do. Today is the feast of Saint Scholastica, the twin sister of Saint Benedict. She is considered the mother of all women religious communities. The cartoon says: “The Garden of Eden is a couple of miles down the road. This is the Garden of Morris.”
