Every Sunday morning since September, I get up at about 5:00 am and head out of the rectory by about 6:30 to go to St Matthew Catholic Church in Ripley, where I celebrate mass with the Spanish speaking community there at 8:00 am. I usually get back on the roady by about 9:15, where I have just enough time to travel the 50 miles back to Tupelo for our 10:30 morning mass at St James. Here are some of the symbols I saw at St Matthew's last Sunday to remind us of our Lenten journey.
This is a blog of homilies, reflections, and photos from a Roman Catholic priest serving in the Diocese of Jackson in the state of Mississippi. Currently, I am the pastor of Holy Savior in Clinton and Immaculate Conception in Raymond. I have served as Vicar General of the Diocese since July 2019. I also serve as Catholic chaplain in the federal prison in Yazoo City and the state prison in Pearl.
