Misericordia Scholarship

Financial Assistance for Members

Go Back

Because we at NRVC believe in what do, we want to welcome all NRVC vocation ministers to our mission of promoting vocations to religious life.

The Misericordia Fund, initiated during the Year of Consecrated Life in 2015, provides scholarships for NRVC membership and programming to religious institutes that otherwise could not afford them, including attending Summer/Fall Institute and Convocation.

How to apply for a scholarship

In 2022, we awarded 31 communities with scholarships. Since 2015, NRVC members have provided 244 Misericordia scholarships totaling $152,0000 for NRVC members. This is a tremendous blessing that we pray continues to give financial assistance with membership fees and workshop fees due to the generosity of NRVC members and benefactors who have donated to the Misericordia Fund.

Gratitude for assistance

The NRVC Misericordia Fund has assisted our congregation to assist with our membership fees and allows us to stay connected to the National Religious Vocation Conference. This relationship affords us the opportunity to stay fully informed throughout the year. We are grateful for the ongoing resources that benefit the discerners we serve, as well as the men in formation within our community.

Our community has been a recipient of the NRVC Misericordia grant for the past two years. This generous assistance has enabled us to become members of the National Religious Vocation Conference which we otherwise would not have been able to afford. The benefits of joining the NRVC have exponentially exceeded our expectations, which we would never have been able to realize without the most generous gift of the Misericordia Fund. The resources and opportunities that are available to NRVC members have been extremely valuable to our community and we are now able to be a part of the larger Church in the promotion of religious vocations.
