Abundant Hope Video Series
Abundant Hope Video Series
Spark a conversation about religious life using this new video series of newer entrants and senior professed members talking about their lived experiences of intergenerational and intercultural vowed communal life.
These short two-three minute videos from a variety of sisters, brothers, and priests can be used in vocation promotion as a way to demonstrate the vitality of consecrated life across generations. They can also be used in community conversations with NRVC's Study and Reflection Guide to enhance vocation ministry. Download the Abundant Hope complementary handout to provide to participants when showing the videos.
All the videos can be accessed directly through the National Religious Vocation Conference YouTube Channel Abundant Hope Playlist, or through the links provided. Thank you to our partners at Franciscan Media who recorded the videos through the generosity of the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation and SOAR!
The NRVC is grateful for the following sisters, brothers, and priests from 61 religious institutes who entered religious life from 1949-2017 for writing a script to share their lived experiences of responding to God's endless call.
It was truly a grace and a joy to share in the Abundant Hope video series! Thank you so much for giving me the privilege of sharing my heart and my gratitude for the beautiful gift of consecrated religious life. God invites others in so many different ways to say "yes" and I pray that your work will touch many more hearts to respond. -------Blessings, Sr. Cor Immaculatum Heffernan, I.H.M.
The 2020 NRVC/CARA Study on Recent Vocations to Religious life reported five common themes:
Because God's call is endless and the NRVC vision is to amplify hope through the prophetic, joyful witness of religious sisters, brothers, and priests, every video ends with this distinct tagline: "I believe God is still calling women and men to holiness -- and I am filled with abundant hope!"
