An unsolicited testimony about how lapsed Catholics do use the Called & Gifted workshop as a bridge back into the Church.  I've heard stories like this a number of times before.  The writer is raving about a recent workshop taught by two priests, Fr. Mike and Fr. Bryan.

"I interviewed a few of the folks that took your workshop at St. X.  They raved about it and you.  Always like to pass on a compliment.

One interesting story ... one of the attendees hadn't set foot in a church for 20 years.  A friend recommended the workshop.  As she started to tell her story the tears started to flow.  Come to find out she also works on the campus as I do. She wants to meet the Newman gang. We are meeting for coffee next week.  This is why I love participating in the Called and Gifted workshop."
