Midwest member area meeting Sept. 21

Prior to the conference, on September 21, the Midwest member area of NRVC will host a meeting that is open to all NRVC members.

The Catholics on Call Partners Conference involves learning and discussion. This year's speaker will be Frank Mercadante, a lecturer and youth minister, who will talk about why young people leave the church and what might the response be.
