300

Joe Paprocki Joe's Comings and Goings

The movie 300 tells the tale of the brave and elite Spartan army of 300 soldiers that went up against the Persian army of over a hundred thousand. Good movie.

Tonight, I am gathering with another brave and elite army of 300…catechists, that is!

Weather permitting, I will be in Naperville in the Joliet diocese, speaking about The Catechist’s Toolbox to 300 catechists from a number of parishes in that area. The DREs are treating their troops first to a dinner followed by my presentation. I look forward to a wonderful evening.

The only fly in the ointment: we have a winter storm warning with predictions of up to 10 inches of snow coming beginning this evening! I pray that we are able to come and go safely from the event and then, while we are sleeping, “let it snow!”
