“Priesthood from the Inside Out” features pastoral reflections of a retired Catholic priest in a West Texas diocese.
           The pen name, "Fr. Luke," is employed to emphasize the broad scope of enrichment that priests generally experience in serving Christ and His Church. Though most of the articles draw upon a rural setting, Fr. Luke's reflections mirror the joy and fulfillment of every dedicated priest.
            This site also contains reflections of a young priest from the same diocese, “Fr. Matthias," whose current workload inhibits his submitting articles on a regular basis. We urge you to explore his previous and well-crafted posts.
            Both Fr. Luke and Fr. Matthias deeply value their vocation as priests. They ask that you pray for and encourage vocations among the young people in your parish communities and families.
            Thank you for visiting “Priesthood from the Inside Out.”
