Mid-South Catholic Leadership Conference – Lake Barkley, KY

Joe Paprocki Comings & Goings, Joe's Comings and Goings

One of the perks of traveling is, in addition to meeting so many wonderful people, visiting some beautiful locations around the country. Today, I had the privilege of speaking at the Mid-South Catholic Leadership Conference held at Lake Barkley, KY (about 90 minutes south of Nashville, TN). Indeed, I got to spend time with some wonderful catechetical leaders, catechists, diocesan staff, (and even a bishop in the audience!) but I also got to enjoy the beauty of Kentucky (I especially enjoyed listening to bluegrass music in the car as I drove from Lake Barkley to the Nashville airport!). My sincerest thanks to all for the wonderful hospitality and for inviting me to speak at such a great event. Enjoy the rest of your conference!

Greetings from Detroit where I’m spending the morning with the Detroit Society of Catechetical Leaders talking about A Well-Built Faith!

This coming Sunday is  Confirmation and for once, I have the opportunity to actually attend the Confirmation Mass to see […]

Surrounded by Cheeseheads! (And I say that affectionately!)

I enjoyed spending the day yesterday with about 50 “Cheeseheads” which of course is the nickname given to Green Bay Packers’ fans. As they celebrate their Superbowl victory, they were gracious enough to welcome this Chicago Bears fan into their midst for a Being, Knowing, and Doing professional development workshop. We had the most wonderful day together and talked about so many ideas and strategies for taking care of our catechists. Thanks to Gary Pokorny, […]
