From Brooklyn to Peru, a legacy with Maryknoll, Fr. Raymond Finch, M.M.
Update: 2023-11-24
Description
Today we sit down with one of the most recognizable and respected Maryknoll Missioners, current Maryknoll Superior General Fr. Raymond Finch.
For those of you who are fans of Maryknoll, you’re likely greeted with Fr. Finch’s weekly Journey of Faith reflection every Sunday.
Originally from Brooklyn, N.Y. Fr. Finch was inspired by one of Maryknoll’s first priests and fellow Brooklynite, Bishop Francis Xavier Ford who was martyred in China in 1952.
Interestingly Fr. Finch was one of the first students to attend Bishop Ford High School in Brooklyn named in honor of him.
Journey with us to the high-altitudes of the Altiplano region of Peru where Fr. Finch worked with the indigenous Aymara community for over 20 years.
Fr. Finch reminds us that in Mission we have to meet people where they are, not where we want or expect them to be.
