Men religious gathering this month

The first of two vocation-focused gatherings of men religious will take place December 9-11 at St. Meinrad Archabbey in Indiana. Sponsored by the National Religious Vocation Conference, the meetings are aimed helping participants learn about contemporary social and demographic conditions affecting men’s communities. Each participant will receive a tool to assess the vocation culture within his own institute.

The second gathering will be at Holy Name Retreat House in Houston, TX in January. The proceedings will be recorded, and a final report will be made public. This initiative is being underwritten by an anonymous donor.
