About Me

My photo
jdonliturgy
Joliet, Illinois, United States
Welcome! This is a place where you might find something a little liturgical, a little catechetical, or both. I also am fascinated by the cultural implications of both. As Catechetical Associate in the Diocese of Joliet Religious Education Office, I support and resource leaders for Child, Intergenerational and Adult Catechesis, as well as Liturgical Catechesis, Catechumenate Formation, Special Needs, and more. I am the author of "From Mass to Mission" for children (from Liturgy Training Publications) and had the privilege of writing a column for "Ministry & Liturgy" magazine for its final year of publication. Yes, I was an English major and it sometimes will show! I have an MA in English and a Masters in Pastoral Studies (Emphasis in Liturgy). I have served in diocesan and parish ministry since 1987 and volunteer in my parish in music, liturgy. RCIA and catechesis.
