God bless you, Father Jim. I pray for your return to the ambo. We are human, not God. God is love and grace. Long may you prosper.

Hi Fr. Jim. I wanted you to know that I think you are a wonderful person. Hang in there...you are a gift to this world. One of my mentors once said to me that tough times will always come upon us...and that it's how we respond to the tough times that matters. Keep the faith. Kathleen DuBois

Fr. Jim, you are and always will be God's gift to us. Spiritual, yet human, with all the attributes of a strong voice and the determination to spread the word of God. You are in our thoughts and prayers daily, knowing you has brought us closer to God. Don't let anyone or anything get you down, we need your uplifting presence in our lives.

You don't know me, but I heard about your trouble and I'm praying for you. All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well.

"These things I remember, as I pour out my soul:
how I went with the throng and led them in procession to the house, with glad shouts and songs of thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival.
Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God: for I shall again praise him, my help and my God. Ps.43:4-5
God is able. Let His song bring healing. He is present, He is near, taking you to a secret place to restore you and bring grace and healing to your heart. He is at work in you, my dear brother. I am with you in this, forever as your sister...Know you are loved.....I know.

Father Jim,
We just received information that you now have a new CD out and we will be in the area on Tuesday and Wednesday next week and will stop by the church to pick it up. Your music gives me such peace! We have the instrumental Heavenly Strings and thoroughly enjoy it...when I am having a day where I choose to "give my peace away" I put one of your CD's on and I am reminded what a wonderful gift of peace I am discarding so easily.
Thank you so much for your peaceful spirit that reflects in your music!
We have all the CD's you have with the exception of your new CD. Please continue to share your music and the gift of peace and faith to us all!
God Bless You!

Father, I last wrote here almost one year ago, after discovering your site quite by accident. In that time, my mom passed away. While she lay in a coma, I played her your CD's, her favorite was How Great Thou Art. When she passed from this life, she entrusted to my care my mentally handicapped brother. Then, just last month, the clinic I worked at for over a decade decided to permanenetly close down next month. My own health is becoming precarious, although my cancer has not returned. The reason I share all of this, is to let you know that through all of these trials, I prayed, I listened to your CD's, and eventually I gained the strength and perspective I needed to move forward. Once again, I thank you Father Jim for the wonderful work you do. May the good Lord continue to bless you and your wonderful ministry.

Father, I found this website quite by accident, and I thank our dear Lord that I did. Your reflections are so meaningful and your music is great. I have been struggling with several serious issues all at once it seems, to the point of feeling overwhelmed and abandoned, and you have made a positive impact on me through your words and music, thank you! I have quickly become a most ardent fan. Thank you, thank you so much Father for what you do! May God bless you and your work.

Father,
First off I want to thank you for tonights music and everynights music. When I heard your music years ago in Wellsburg, I thought if there's ever music that may help me heal, it will be this. I'm not sure how well it is doing, but what it has done was bring me beautiful moments of memories of her. I love the songs you remake, but mainly YOUR SONGS. Your stories are strong too.
THANK YOU FOR all that you do for myself and all others that you touch.

I attended your mission at St. James in Rockford, Il. To say the least, IT WAS AWESOME. I was only able to attend 2 of the 4 sessions. I did hear what I missed from my friends who attended. After reading your profile I noticed some misspelled words. It is a gift that God has provided me with & I would like to pass it on to the people who set up the website. Thank you for being such an inspiration to all who know or have heard you speak & sing.
Thank You & God Bless You

Whenever life leaves me feeling "frazzled," I just take a break and visit your website. Your extensive collection of inspirational music never fails to provide the perfect song to refresh my soul and lift my spirits. Who needs Calgon when a quick mouse click can "take me away?" Thanks for being there!
