Thank you to Mark Teresi

NRVC development director, NFCRV director scaling back


Mark Teresi

Mark Teresi, who has led NRVC development efforts and directed the National Fund for Catholic Religious Vocations since 2015, will be scaling back his hours to two days a week at the end of this year and will assist with a search for his replacement. He will be joining the development and planning efforts at Holy Name Cathedral Parish in Chicago on a part time basis.

"I am grateful for the many friends and colleagues I have been privileged to get to know and work with these past 3 plus years," noted Teresi. "Most especially I am humbled  and awed to have been part of an initiative that has supported 27 new vocations to the religious life to date."

NRVC extends its gratitude to Teresi as he begins this transition and wishes him well as he continues to serve the church.
