Brothers Symposium April 4

A second national symposium to elevate and discuss the vocation of brothers will take place April 4 in Boston. NRVC is a co-sponsor of the event, along with the Religious Brothers Conference, the Conference of the Major Superiors of Men, and the Religious Formation Conference.

The keynote speaker for the symposium will be Vatican astronomer Brother Guy Consolmagno, S.J. He will speak on "The prophetic call of the brother in the church."  Two other brother-presenters will take up related themes, and small group sessions will allow for discussion. Cardinal Sean O'Malley will celebrate the closing Mass.

An optional bus tour of Spencer Abbey and brewery will take place on April 3, and participants are encouraged to stay on for an April 5 breakfast and guided discussion. Details and registration are here.
