We have organized another strong Catholic-centered program with a great speaker lineup for the 12th annual Continuing Education Program. What a great opportunity to network in person and support the Catholic professional community. Please share these Continuing Education Program marketing materials with your colleagues and friends.
Registration is now open for this year's event. There are also sponsorship opportunities available. All the marketing materials can be found on the website.
After the challenges of last year, the theme, "Shout for Joy" (Psalm 100:1) invites students to celebrate God's presence in their lives and to proclaim His good news. Mark your calendar for March 4 for the Artist Awards Reception which begins at 9:00 am, prayer service and entertainment. The Public Exhibition will run March 4 - April 30 at Savior Pastoral Center in the Art Hallway. Make plans to visit the Art Hallway.
Coordinated by the Office of Stewardship and Development and supported by the Catholic Foundation of Northeast Kansas and Catholic Cemeteries of Northeast Kansas.
