Join us in learning together

This year, NRVC is offering four workshops at the Fall Institute in October intended for vocation ministers and others entrusted with the assessment of discerners and candidates. Workshops are designed from the NRVC three-component curriculum for those who wish to deepen their understanding of the complex theological, spiritual, psycho-sexual, ethical, and diversity issues often present in contemporary vocation ministry. Learning together, whether in person or online is important for vocation ministry to be ethical, credible, and relevant.

Take a workshop in the comfort of your home, no hassles with travel or packing, just time to enjoy learning from experienced presenters who will engage participants with a reasonable schedule integrated with screen breaks.

Please note workshop times vary, however all workshops begin at 9:30 a.m. Central Time with communal prayer. Breaks are scheduled for the morning and afternoon sessions along with a 60 minute break for lunch.
