Under the Influence in San Antonio, TX!

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

A great big THANK YOU to  all the good folks who participated in the Mid Winter Gathering for the Archdiocese of San Antonio, TX! I get a kick out of that title: mid-winter! It was about 80 degrees today!

Anyway, I had the privilege of doing the keynote presentation on my new book, Under the Influence of Jesus: The Transforming Experience of Encountering Christ, as well as a workshop on my earlier book, 7 Keys to Spiritual Wellness. 

Below are pics of the crowd and then me with Gloria (Gigi) Zapiain (the Director of the Catechetical Center) and Cherryl Sagan, (Media Resource Consultant).

Unfortunately, I did not leave enough time for all of them to finish so I will allow some time this coming Monday for the rest of the group to complete the exam. I have no doubt that part of the reason that we had such a robust conversation about the 1o Commandments last Monday was because the kids knew that the more they talked, the […]

A Visit From the Associate Pastor

Joe Paprocki Intermediate Grades

Last night, we had a very nice visit from our Associate Pastor, Fr. Matthew Nemchausky. Fr.
