The NRVC board has begun the search for a new executive director and announced plans for the interim period following September 16, the final day for outgoing executive director Brother Paul Bednarczyk, C.S.C. Brother Paul is moving to Rome to serve as vicar general of the Congregation of Holy Cross.

The board has delegated responsibilities among board members and the NRVC staff. Board chair Brother Ronald Hingle, S.C. will be NRVC's spokesperson; Sister Deborah Borneman, SS.C.M., director of member relations and services, will oversee many day-to-day office operations.

"Brother Paul has brought a great deal of energy, creativity, wisdom, enthusiasm and interpersonal skills to his ministry as executive director of NRVC for the past 14 years. We will miss him greatly, but we know that the Lord has even greater plans to continue to use him and the NRVC to build the Kingdom," said NRVC board chair Brother Ronald Hingle, S.C.
