The below-zero temperatures were inhospitable outside the Columbian Meeting and Conference Center in West Bend, Wis. on January 5, the feast of the Epiphany. However, the event inside was warm and lively.
Over 110 people attended the double-book signing program titled “Return to Family: Getting Your Family Fired Up About Honor, Role Models and the Faith.” The afternoon of reflection about America’s future was sponsored by the local Knights of Columbus and chapters of the Men of Christ and the Women of Christ.
