It's #SlideBackSaturday - time to go back to the Saturday night of the convention. We could call it #CelebrateSaturday because we certainly did that! Our DJ for the night shared these pictures with us along with a little note: "I just wanted to take a moment to tell you what a joy it was to be part of the entertainment and celebration for the WWME2018 event ... and to work with YOU. So many people attended with the best kind of fun and involvement in mind. You'd be surprised how much easier that makes my job." Remember this when you wonder if we can change the world. #WWME50

Throw Back Thursday to July 13-15, 2012 and the convention held in Sacramento, California - Sharing The Dream. "Our dream is to see this convention become a rallying point for couples and priests to share their passion for sacramental love and to energize their communities with excitement," said Jose and Trini Chavez, the convention chairs. Don Quixote was our guide and host for the convention, welcoming us on Friday night and leading us through scenes from Man of La Mancha, to presentations, to dialogue throughout the weekend.  Have a throw back you want to share?
