Symposium Is a Success

The symposium with Richard Gaillardetz entitled, The New Catechetical Reality: Forming Catholic Identity in a Postmodern Context, held in Elk Grove Illinois December 8, 9, and 10, was an overwhelming success. Nearly 80 diocesan directors, staff and publisher representatives grappled with constraints and aids to forming Catholic Identity. Gaillardetz lead the participants in an indepth exploration of the catechetical reality we face today. A report from the symposium will be posted here on the Director's blog in about a week. Gaillardetz also agreed to make the Power Point he used in his presentations available.

I am glad this symposium was a success...I think it is important that the DDRE Forum continue to forge ahead with continued formational and educational opportunities appropriate to DDREs...I regret that we were not able to make it due to weather; I am sure it would have been a very good experience; both the learning and the networking with others.

So, what is next!
