Moving on from vocation ministry?

Prepare for a good transition


NRVC database director  Marge Argyelan is happy to help departing NRVC members register an incoming member.

If you are moving on from full-time vocation ministry, NRVC thanks you for your service and encourages you to help the incoming vocation director to get connected.  Consider introducing the newcomer to your fellow vocation directors, getting him or her on the NRVC digital and postal mailing lists, and preparing other details for a smooth transition. 

Contact Marge Argyelan at NRVC to ensure that the new director is properly registered with NRVC: margyelan@nrvc.net or 773-363-5454.
