Here’s another resource for Catechetical Sunday, a special 3-Minute Retreat for Catechists!

Thanks to the good folks of Louisville for a wonderful experience! Print Friendly

Joe, Thank you so much. You do a fantastic job. I am going to use the three minute retreat this Sunday for our catechist’s meeting, so that I may do a good job.
Thanks for the reminder! Sometimes we forget that we ARE special – that we ARE called to this ministry, and even when it doesn’t seem like the seeds you scatter fall on fertile soil…some just take longer to germinate!
