NRVC receives a generous $10,000 grant from our partners at SOAR!

The NRVC vision is to be prophetic, joyful witnesses as radical disciples of Jesus! Who do you know who sparks hope in our world? We are looking for NRVC members who are at least 70 years old and have been professed at least 25 years to amplify their hope and help create 3–4-minute videos (approximately 15 sentences). The videos will include the year you entered religious life, not your age.  

We are looking for vowed religious who can easily share the joy of their vocation, intercultural and intergenerational experiences of community life, and gratitude for living the vows. Five years ago, NRVC teamed up with SOAR! to create 26 videos to add to the Abundant Hope series. Now, we need members who can state with confidence, I believe God is still calling women and men to holiness because I am a bearer of hope!  

NRVC expects to record the videos at Convocation and publish them on our YouTube channel for World Day for Consecrated Life on February 2, 2027. Please email Sister Debbie at debbiesscm@nrvc.net to submit your name, interest, and confirm your availability to be recorded at Convocation on November 19-20.
