Santa Clara Faith Formation Conference

Joe Paprocki Joe's Comings and Goings

A great  big THANK YOU to all the good folks who came out to the Santa Clara Faith Formation Conference this past weekend and especially to those who sat in on my presentations! It’s always a delight to travel to California (especially when it’s cold in Chicago!) and to share faith with you. I also had a chance to get together with my cousin Mike and his wife Mary Kay who live in San Jose…it was great catching up! (And it was NOT fun coming back to snow and 19 degrees!)

Of course, that’s the classic Beachboys tune – I Get Around – that I’m invoking as I draw your attention to my updated calendar for 2010 (at the bottom of the About Me page).

Perhaps some of us will have a chance to meet at these various events around the country! I’ve met a number […]

  2. I am director of our parish youth catechesis and have been a catechist since I was a sophamore in college (25+ years ago!). I attended your Friday morning presentation on Catholic identity and it was great. I have read a few of your books and this year we started using Called To Be Catholic. Excellent text. Will be following it with Confirmed in the Spirit.
