Have you heard the news?!
This August 11th, the first ever Real Learning Conference will take place in Manassas, Virginia! Read all about the plans here at the Conference website, and here at the 4Real Forums, and don't forget to download a printable flyer here. :)
I am so proud and excited to be part of this conference - my first ever! I am honored to be speaking with Jenn Miller on Living the Liturgical Year (and I got butterflies just typing that sentence, lol). Other speakers include Real Learning author Elizabeth Foss, Theresa Gonzalez, Mary Ellen Barrett, Meredith Henning, Michele Quigley, Janette Smith and Bridget Galbraith. What beautiful company! I can hardly wait to meet these lovely women whom I have known for years and yet have never met!
I'm still working out just what I will say during my talk (more butterflies!) but I will mostly be focusing on the things I've shared here at my blog - the crafts, learning activities and simple ways we celebrate the seasons of our Catholic faith. I'll be bringing some of my organizing materials with me, too. :)
