Vegas and Springfield on my Mind
I haven’t had much Internet access for a couple of days, but I wanted to say hi and let you all know that I am having a fantastic time at the National Conference for Catechetical Leadership in Vegas.

I have yet to read your book! I’m sure they appreciated what you’ve written, so very good work! I’m sure I’ll learn a lot from it as well. God bless 🙂
