I missed the high school webinar. How do I listen to it? I would like to hear it this pm asap. Thanks
Hi Charlene. The recording will be available on my blog in a few days…I’ll announce it as soon as it is available. It will be on the Webinars tab at the top of my home page. Stay tuned.
Hi Joe,
I just wanted to thank you for making the recordings of the webinars available. I had signed up for all of them but, unfortunately, was not able to attend the first and third. I did attend the second but was interrupted in the middle so I missed some of it. It is great to be able to view them and to review the parts that were particularly interesting and informative. You are always full of great ideas. It is also good to see that some of the things I do in class are right on the money. Affirmation is always a good thing. Thanks again and God bless you for all you do for us.
Ana, thanks so much for your feedback. I’m glad that you are finding both new ideas and affirmation for the good work you are doing!
Hi Joe-
I was wondering what you would recommend as far as books/materials in preparing upper elementary grades and middle schoolers for their First Reconciliation and First Communion. Thanks so much for your help!
Marie, perhaps you’ll find this discussion helpful: https://catechistsjourney.loyolapress.com/2008/10/31/catch-up-catechesis-kids-out-of-sequence/
Hi Joe,
I listened to the first webinar missed the next two, and was able to listen to Teaching adults. Unfortunately I missed the first few minutes, but feel I did get to hear the majority of it. It was extremely helpful. I am on the west coast and I don’t get off work until 5:00 PM. I took off a few minutes early tonight and just made it in time. Anyway to do the West coast on a Saturday AM or later? I am technically illiterate for the most part, but I am curious. I also have to return to work for a 6:30 PT meeting. The weekdays are not conducive most of the time…that’s why I missed the 2 & 3 webinars.
Thank you for the wonderful job you are doing. I am finding these very helpful.
