'Round, 'Round, Get Around, I Get Around!

Joe Paprocki Newsworthy

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). The traveling begins in earnest next week when I fly to Bridgeport, CT to spend a day with about 100 catechetical leaders!

Perhaps some of us will have a chance to meet at these various events around the country! I’ve met a number of you on my travels and I always appreciate it when catechists come up and introduce themselves as a regular visitor to my blog!

I also appreciate the invitations that I receive to give talks at individual parishes however please note that because of the volume of requests I receive, my talks are limited to diocesan/regional gatherings. Thanks for understanding.

Have a great weekend and come Monday, I’ll update you on the next Confirmation intensive we’re doing that evening.

No, I’m not thanking Green Bay for anything the Packers have done recently! I’m sending my sincere thanks to all the good folks up there who hosted a couple of wonderful catechetical events that they invited me to speak at. On Wednesday, October 26, I spent the evening with about 250 catechists in Appleton, WI, talking about The Catechist’s Toolbox. What an outstanding turnout! The next day, I spent the morning with about 75 catechetical […]

The event was organized by the Wisconsin Directors of Religious Education Federation (WDREF). I had the pleasure of seeing […]
