Thank you, thank you very much…

This week we are discussing shifting to an attitude of gratitude. Fr. Andy helps us understand how we can focus on the good instead of dwelling on the not-so good. 

Also, Fr. Andy pulls out yet another gift from his special gift pocket… and he’s sharing this one with our St. Joe’s listeners too!

We are so thankful for all of YOU!
