The award was given at the opening banquet of the J.S. Paluch Annual Vocation Seminar. For the past 28 years, the seminar has brought together leaders of the church whose ministry directly or indirectly affects vocations.
In announcing the award, Dolores Orzel, creative director of the NVAD, noted Teresi's long career in development for Mundelein Seminary, as well as his leadership in forming the National Fund for Catholic Religious Vocations.
The fund was established by NRVC and in July 2015 distributed its first 10 grants to pay student debt of sisters in formation.
