New workshop this summer

New workshop this summer

"Is it Generational, Cultural, Personality, or Pathology?"


To minister effectively, vocation ministers need to understand the many layers of influences on contemporary young people. Join us for a workshop that delves into this fascinating topic.

This July 16-18, NRVC invites you to join us for a new workshop: "Is it Generational, Cultural, Personality, or Pathology?"

This all-new workshop will feature a detailed look at factors that loom large in the lives of inquirers and discerners. The presenters will examine generational differences, cultural characteristics in our multicultural society, and personality and mental health factors that affect prospective new members in religious life.

Presenters will include: Sister Donna Del Santo, S.S.J., vocation director for the Sisters of St. Joseph of Rochester, New York; Brother Sean Sammon, F.M.S., scholar in residence at Marist College, Poughkeepsie, New York; and Crystal Taylor-Dietz, Psy.D. of Saint Luke Institute in Maryland.
