Kansas City Called & Gifted

Last night in KC. 350 attended our two English/Spanish Called & Gifted workshops there.

This is the largest crowd we have ever had a single venue in the US (not the largest single US *workshop* though). Good people. It is an interesting challenge to manage numbers like that. Breaks become 25 minutes long in order to enable everyone to visit the restroom, sign up for interviews, buy books, etc. Fr. Mike and I had to streamline content and skip certain cherished stories and illustrations to meet very tight time lines. But people were enthused and moved and eager to discern and a stalwart army of 26 trained interviewers stood ready to help. And very interesting post-workshop conversation with the organizers.

Home tomorrow. More then.
