The National Religious Vocation Conference (NRVC) is committed to providing its membership with resources, workshops, and other programs that strengthen and enhance the professional skills of those serving in vocation ministry. NRVC strongly suggests that vocation ministers participate in opportunities to further develop their professional competencies. Each year NRVC provides vocation ministers serving in today’s church various opportunities for professional growth through its comprehensive Summer Institute. The workshops are designed for those who wish to deepen their understanding of the complex theological, spiritual, psycho-sexual, ethical, and diversity issues often present in contemporary vocation ministry.
Our annual Summer Institute offered four workshops at the downtown campus of DePaul University, July 8-22, located at 1 East Jackson Boulevard in Chicago, Illinois 60604-2287.
Overnight accommodations were available at the University Center, which is just two blocks from DePaul University. Participants enjoyed the convenience of having their workshop close to restaurants, shopping, museums and Lake Michigan.
The numbers of participants was just enough for our workshop to run smoothly, enough time to answer each individual’s questions, and I got to know each one in our group . . . in a way that speaks to us as collaborators in vocation ministry.—Sister Palepa Ioane, S.M.S.M.
