I want to say a joyful THANK YOU for all who have downloaded and shared my podcasts this past year!  Here are a few quick facts:

• One year in operation
• 133 Podcasts
• Sunday Masses, Daily Masses, Retreats, and Presentations
• +21, 800 Downloads

What started initially as just a simple record of homilies has now grown to an average of 2-4 podcasts/week.  I am touched by the response I have received from people across the country, and I am honored to share my ministry here at Cathedral with you.  There is no charge for "Catholic Inspiration" and no requests for donations - this is an extension of my pastoral work here in the Diocese of Superior.

My one request: if you find these podcasts helpful - please share them with your loved ones!  Practically, that means:

• Share these posts and podcasts with your friends on Facebook or other social media
• Feel free to tell others who you think would like to follow (that whole "word of mouth" thing)
• For those of you who use iTunes: go to "Catholic Inspiration" and give me a rating and review!

My only wish is for more people to draw near to Jesus Christ and one another through Study, Prayer, and Service.  May Year Two - which is blessed to coincide with the Year of Mercy - be filled with graces for us all!
