Delighted to Be in Duluth!

I’m enjoying my first visit to Duluth, MN, and I have to say that it is simply one of the most beautiful lakefronts I have ever seen! I had a wonderfully relaxing afternoon here yesterday, topped off by a nice 5-mile run along the lake walk. Lots of nice quiet time last evening in the hotel room to get some writing done. Today, I will do a presentation at the Minnesota Catholic Education Association Conference. I look forward to spending a few hours with catechists and Catholic school religion teachers, as we look at skills and strategies for effective catechesis drawing from my book, The Catechist’s Toolbox!

    You are truly amazing and truly love your ministry among youth…thank you for being contagious! Keep smiling…that’s being evangelical…or a sign of the Good News of God’s infinite love and mercy. Paxtecum.

  2. Hi Joe,

    I attended your workshops. You did a great job. Three hours is a long time! You offered to share your power point presentation. Can you tell me how to find it? I’d like to share bits with our catechists throughout the first part of the year.

    Thanks so much. It looks like you are doing a lot of traveling. Do you get to stay home for a while soon?

    Blessings,
    Linda

    • Thanks, Linda. I’ll be in touch with you by email about the powerpoint. Yes, I’ve enjoyed being home and always do!
