Comments
MJM Lenten 2011 tour
Thanks for the pictures. They are great. Keep doing what you are doing. I am so glad you where on EWTN "Life on the Rock," so more young people can get to know you and your music. I am back in Minnesota for the next 6 months. I am a snowbird to Arizona and that is where I met you. There is a great parish here in Oakdale, Mn, Transfiguration Catholic Church, with a great priest, Father Baer, who would welcome you if you are ever up this way. God Bless You, Julie B
