NRVC encourages people to freely distribute the above video in celebrating World Day for Consecrated Life.

NRVC has produced two new resources for celebrating World Day for Consecrated Life, to take place February 2, with parishes celebrating it February 4-5.

Artwork used in NRVC's newest vocation prayer card.

Based on interviews with those who attended the NRVC Convocation in October, NRVC Board member Father Toby Collins, C.R. and Andrew Turski created an upbeat 2.4-minute video titled, "Why we love our vocation." NRVC encourages people to make free use of this video. Consider posting it on social media sites, sending the link by email, using it during celebrations, etc.

NRVC also has produced a new prayer card ideal for use in connection with World Day for Consecrated Life. It features the beautiful "Wake up the World" icon art of Vivian Imbruglia and a prayer drawn from the words of Pope Francis. It may be downloaded. Or it may be purchased in packs of 100 for $8 per pack for members or $12 for non-members, plus shipping and handling.
