2026 Talk it up Tuesdays

2026 Talk it up Tuesdays

NRVC Member meet-up


"Talk it Up Tuesdays" are back in January 2026 for a fifth season! These 60-minute Zoom gatherings are designed for members to learn together, support one another, and exchange ideas.

These one-hour sessions will begin at 1:00 p.m. CDT and focus on topics in vocation ministry. Each session will include an opening prayer, introductions, a 20-minute short presentation, 15-minute breakout groups, and 15 minutes to share ideas, followed by announcements and expressions of gratitude. Best of all, these sessions are free and open to all NRVC members!

Sessions are not recorded.
