		<description>Sorry It took so long to see your comment! Absolutely send me info at brazeaus at comcast.net
We are at a crossroads because so many of us have had more than difficult times this school year. Your prayers would be appreciated. I&#039;d still love to have a conference.
One thing I know is you should set a price per talk, per 2 talks or per weekend. (travel expenses aside) You can always still speak for free locally to get the word out but you will have quantified the value of the donation and be ready. I&#039;ve seen prices as low as $800 for known authors, one talk.</description>

		<description>I was researching on line opportunities for public speaking and came across this website. 

I am a catholic mother who homeschooled my 2 children from K-12th grade. My 24 yr old son is now in his last year at Ave Maria University in Florida in the pre-theologate program, discerning the priesthood and my 23 yr old daughter is just finishing her first year as a postulant in the Missionary Benedictine Sisters of Nebraska, the religious community she entered last January.

I have done public speaking for the past several years in various settings in my parish, high schools, youth groups, womens&#039; groups and young mother&#039;s groups.I have done personal witness talks about our faith journey as a family as well as my own personal witness. I have just recently been recording my talks as I believe this is the direction Our Lord is now calling me to as my children have grown older and the opportunities have presented themselves for mentoring younger mothers. 

I do not really know how to go about public speaking out of my immediate area. That is why I am writing you. If there is an interest on your part I would be happy to send you a cd of one of my recent talks.

May Our Lord and Our Lady bless you with continued graces for the work and encouragement you are providing.

In Christ,
Teresa Lanowich</description>
