I had the most wonderful time in Bridgeport, CT, yesterday, spending the day with about 150 of the nicest people in the world (I know, I always say that, but HEY, catechetical ministers are some of the nicest people in the whole world!).

I enjoyed spending the day on Friday with about 65 catechetical leaders of the Detroit Society of Catechetical Leaders exploring what it means to live Under the Influence of Jesus. Thanks to all of the great folks who came out to spend the first full day of spring together exploring how we can more effectively evangelize and catechize! Print Friendly

Thank you for the presentation, Joe. It was an enjoyable and informative session. I plan on bringing your bookmarks back to our program and putting them to good use.
You’re very welcome, Laurie! I had a wonderful time and I’m glad that you got something out of it to use with your program!
Joe,
I too enjoyed your presentation in Bridgeport and am making plans to share it with my catechists and Confirmation students. Reading through the Bible Blueprint has been helpful. I have been enjoying the side comments, cartoons and jokes as well as the practical information.
I bought Your book for my catechists. You mentioned that you would make your powerpoint presentation available. I would appreciate that very much
Thanks, Debbie! Yes, I’ll be in touch soon.
