Orientation workshop being offered in October

"Orientation Program for New Vocation Directors" will be offered October 15-19 at the NRVC Fall Institute in Leavenworth, Kansas.

This important workshop helps newcomers to vocation ministry understand the skills, context, theory, challenges, and practicalities of contemporary vocation ministry. Topics include foundational elements of vocation ministry, assessment of inquirers and discerners, application and admission processes, vocation promotion, ethics and boundaries, resiliency, and self-care of the vocation director.

This workshop is part of the core curriculum recommended by NRVC for every vocation director.  It will be presented by seasoned vocation director Brother Jonathan Beebe, C.S.C. and NRVC's director of member relations and services Sister Deborah Borneman, SS.C.M.

In addition to the "Orientation Program for New Vocation Directors," NRVC is also offering the following workshops at its Fall Institute. Details and registration for any workshop are here.
