NRVC will be part of the World Meeting of Families in Philadelphia September 22-25, which is expected to gather 10-15,000 Catholics from 150 countries.
NRVC will have an exhibit booth at the event to showcase the soon-to-be-released NRVC-CARA Study: The Role of the Family in Nurturing Vocations to Religious Life and the Priesthood. NRVC Members from Region 3 will assist at the booth.
Held every three years and sponsored by the Holy See’s Pontifical Council for the Family, the World Meeting of Families is the world’s largest Catholic gathering of families. Each World Meeting of Families has a theme meant to energize the event and add depth to the church's understanding of families. “Love Is Our Mission: The Family Fully Alive,” is the theme for the Philadelphia meeting.
The pope's visit to Philadelphia for the event, on September 26 and 27, is expected to attract some 2 million pilgrims.
