The West Texas Catholic: The Podcast

The Centennial Mass is over. Joyce Knight can finally rest. Well...until we get a new bishop. 😬 After eight months of planning, venue changes, countless volunteers, bishops, banners, music, security, food, flowers, and one traveling crucifix, Joyce looks back at the monumental effort behind the Diocese of Amarillo's 100th anniversary celebration. She takes us behind the scenes and gives credit where credit is due — to the countless people who turned eight months of planning into one beautiful celebration. It took a village...and apparently a mattress. 😂
