Workshops are designed from the NRVC curriculum 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. The NRVC recommends that vocation ministers participate in ongoing educational opportunities to attend to their own vocation, faith formation, and to further develop their professional competencies.
“The sessions involved many practical examples and questions which could be asked. It also listed several criterial pertaining to different situations which are applicable to assessment. Father Ray has a lot of experience and is a talented speaker so it was not hard to maintain attention throughout.” --Dr. Daniel Micallef
“Father Ray is an expert in his field and his generosity to pass on his knowledge and wisdom to others is highly appreciated.”
--Sister Madona Malacapay, O.C.D.“The workshop gave me much information on the process of evaluating and interviewing seekers and inquirers to our community. It gave me much-needed background information and provided practical tools in the process. Though daunting to implement, the workshop provided more practical information than I expected.”
--Brother Joseph Kronebush, O.C.S.O.“There is no question that his experience and expertise are likely without comparison, and I appreciated his ability to navigate the conversations and the questions.”
--Brother David Caretti, F.S.C.
