Chicago: 81, San Diego 65
No that’s not a basketball score! They are the temperatures in these respective cities! It just so happens that I am in San Diego right now and while it is a beautiful sunny day here, I can’t believe that Chicago is 15 degrees warmer! Anyway, I’m not complaining. It’s my first time in San Diego and it is beautiful! I’m looking forward to speaking to a group of junior high catechists and youth ministers tonight […]

More Pics from N’awlins!
Thanks to my friend and colleague, Carol, I have some more pics to share from New Orleans (Hofinger Catechetical Conference).

Many thanks, Joe, for sharing this presentation with all of us. As I continue to journey through what is a very busy time for me personally, this presentation has stoked the embers that I felt were buried deep and renews my energy for this day. We continue to be blessed by your sharing of your ministry.

Bernie, you’re very welcome! We all need those embers stoked from time to time, eh? Thanks for the kind words and I wish you many blessings!
Joe, what a wonderful privilege it was to present you at RE Congress on Sunday! I was very inspired by your words of wisdom. Thank you for all you do!
Blessings,
Lillian
Lilian, it was a pleasure meeting you and I had a wonderful time. Thank you for your hospitality and I wish you continued blessings as you enter Holy Week!
This sounds very familiar…have I read a book of yours that treats this subject?
This was the focus of the online retreat I hosted last summer on my blog. Good memory, Christian!
Dear Joe,
I finally got to meet you in person! Your presentation was awesome and very helpful for me. Thank you for your words of wisdom. Your talk has inspired me. I was so happy to be there at the Congress. God bless you!
Sr. Betty, thanks for your kind words…I had such a wonderful time at the Congress! I’m glad that I was able to partner with you in your ministry, at least for an hour or so! Have a blessed Holy Week and a wonderful Easter!
