I had the most wonderful time in Bridgeport, CT, yesterday, spending the day with about 150 of the nicest people in the world (I know, I always say that, but HEY, catechetical ministers are some of the nicest people in the whole world!). Thanks to Carol Pinard (director of the catechetical office) and all the good folks of Bridgeport for their hospitality! Here’s a peek:

No that’s not a basketball score! They are the temperatures in these respective cities! It just so happens that I am in San Diego right now and while it is a beautiful sunny day here, I can’t believe that Chicago is 15 degrees warmer! Anyway, I’m not complaining.

Thank you for the presentation, Joe. It was an enjoyable and informative session. I plan on bringing your bookmarks back to our program and putting them to good use.
You’re very welcome, Laurie! I had a wonderful time and I’m glad that you got something out of it to use with your program!
Joe,
I too enjoyed your presentation in Bridgeport and am making plans to share it with my catechists and Confirmation students. Reading through the Bible Blueprint has been helpful. I have been enjoying the side comments, cartoons and jokes as well as the practical information.
I bought Your book for my catechists. You mentioned that you would make your powerpoint presentation available. I would appreciate that very much
Thanks, Debbie! Yes, I’ll be in touch soon.
