  • What can we do to maintain thankfulness?

(18:08) Break 1

  • Mike – We can be thankful for the opportunity to suffer with Christ. To me, that’s one of the things he saved us from…from useless suffering.  Suffering with him makes it very valuable.
  • How can we influence young people to be thankful?
  • (25:48) Nick – Share a few insights to gratitude.  Give thanks to God for all circumstances.  You have to practice in easy times so when the hard times come along, you have it ingrained.  Praising others for their gifts is also a great remedy. Thankful for the Eucharist.
