Workshop Overview

Why do so many Catholics doubt the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist? Why do so many young people miss out on the true meaning of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass? This Workshop will explore ways we can become more effective Eucharistic missionaries and help our students grow in their understanding and love for Jesus in the Eucharist.

This Workshop blends scholar presentations with interactive pedagogical sessions, giving you a chance to explore content with a respected scholar, as well as explore and simulate practical teaching strategies with ready-to-use classroom materials. Share best practices and enjoy catered breakfast and lunch with your fellow Diocese of Sioux City principals and teachers.

Registration for the event is being handled by the Diocese of Sioux City.
