Year of Mercy

Year of Mercy

Tell us how you'll mark it; Brother Paul at opening Mass


NRVC and its VISION and HORIZON editors are seeking feedback from religious communities about how they are marking the Year of Mercy. 

If your religious community will be undertaking any type of activity in commemoration of the Year of Mercy, please write to NRVC publications editor Carol Schuck Scheiber at cscheiber@nrvc.net.

Information about what you are doing, when, and with whom is welcome. Photos of events are also encouraged.

In other Year of Mercy news, NRVC's Brother Paul Bednarczyk, C.S.C. was able to take part in the opening Mass with Pope Francis for the Year of Mercy. Brother Paul was in Rome presenting a workshop for Holy Cross vocation directors.

Brother Paul in St. Peter's Square for the opening Mass for Year of Mercy on December 8, 2015.
