Thanks Father Bob....

During Mass on Thanksgiving day, Father Bob taught us a new word that his nephew created: Tha-Your-Come! This new word is a combination of "Thank You" and "Your Welcome" which for a young boy learning so many new words, his interpretation of these was "thayourcome":)  Father Bob wove this nicely into his homily about gratitude/thanks and accepting of gifts etc.

Father Bob also took a moment to publicly recognize and thank a few parishoners for volunteering in the many activities going on at St. Ambrose. I was sitting closer to the front on this day, so I was one of the ones he pointed out. He noted my involvement in the Living Your Strengths program and jumping right in to get involved.

I also learned that the next new class for Living Your Strengths will begin in February, and our ongoing Support Group meets on December 14th. I'm really looking forward to them both! Here is a link to LYS details if you are interested in learning more!

Sharing the Wealth

The Strengths Finder book may in fact be one of my most favorite. I have bought and shared so many copies of it, I almost forget all of those who I've given a copy to! This always comes back though, as others who have received a copy tell me about their experience with it. I love learning about their "top 5 signature themes" and the different insights or even "ah-ha" moments people have with it.

If you took the Strengths Finder, please share your "Top 5" and/or your insights and experiences with it.

My Top 5 Signature Themes were Achiever, Learner, Responsibility, Arranger, and Relator.
