Practice Makes Catholic in Wisconsin Rapids

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

I enjoyed an evening with about 100 catechists in Wisconsion Rapids, WI, on Wednesday, focusing on Practice Makes Catholic and our Catholic identity. The folks who hosted the event went out of their way to make sure that each table had a unique centerpiece that represented various aspects of Catholic identity. Here’s an example:

Thanks to all the folks who came out to spend such an enjoyable evening! BTW, here’s where I stopped for breakfast on my way home (Westfield, WI) the next morning . I love local flavor. Have a great weekend!

P.S. Come Monday, we’ll start seeing the video clips of my visit to Nick’s 5th grade class!
