This homily has only the slightest connection to the readings of the Sunday liturgy; it is instead a reflection on the missionary impulse that is at the heart of the Church's life, particularly as it was lived by Father David Baronti across 42 years of priestly service to the faithful of Antigua Santa Catarina Ixtahuacan in the highlands of Guatemala. Having just returned to Cuenca, Ecuador from an extraordinary week in Antigua Santa Catarina Ixtahuacan for Padre David's funeral services, I felt it important to share some of these experiences with my friends here in Cuenca. It goes a bit long, but once I got started, it was difficult to stop!
