Thank you…

I would not have been able to publish this book without the help of some very special people.  First and foremost, I would like to thank the Girl Scouts of the USA for giving me the opportunity to complete my Gold Award.  Thank you to the Faith Formation catechists and students at Saints John & Paul Parish of Franklin Park, PA for the beautiful artwork that is featured in this book.  Much gratitude goes to Sister Annie Bremmer, OSF for being my mentor in this project and providing so much inspiration and support. Many thanks to Susie and Jay Hernishin of SJH Design for bringing my book and website visions to life. Finally, the biggest thanks go to my parents, Bill and Roslyn, and my older sister, Maria, for their endless support in all facets of my life. Simply said: I could not have done this without you — thank you.
