National Religious Vocations Personnel Conference 2024

Saturday 2nd November 2024

Message from Fr Joseph Raju Katthula CMF, Religious Life Promoter at the National Office for Vocation.

Greetings from the National Office for Vocation (NOV). I hope and pray that you are keeping well by the grace of God.

We are delighted to invite you to register for the National Religious Vocations Personnel (NRVP) 2024, which is to be held on 2nd November 2024, 9.30 am to 4pm. We are fortunate this year to have two guest speakers. Fr Nicholas Crowe OP the provincial superior of the Dominican order in UK and Beth Przybylska, the strategic project director at Catholic Youth Ministry Federation (CYMFed). Fr Nicholas is author of the famous book ‘Living our Vocation (Even If You Don’t Know What It Is Yet)’. Fr Nicholas will guide us through his reflections on how we are able to sow the seeds of vocation into the hearts of people, while Beth will talk to us about the culture of young people today. Mass will be part of the schedule on the day.

The conference will take place at Galleon Suite, ROYAL NATIONAL HOTEL, 38-51 Beford way, London – Euston, WC1H 0DG. It is just five minutes’ walk from Euston station.

Please feel free to circulate the information and extend this invitation to as many religious as possible. NRVP has always been the best place for the religious to connect and become more integrated in England and Wales.

We invite you to book your slot by filling in the form and follow the instructions to make a registration fee payment of £60. The deadline for returning your application is 10th October 2024. Please note to secure arrangements, cancellations received less than 30 days before the conference start date, will not be refunded, but a nomination for a replacement delegate will be accepted free of charge. This fee includes snacks, tea, coffees on arrival, a fully catered lunch plus more refreshments in the afternoon.

We are really looking forward to meeting you in person!  

Thanking you in anticipation.

What is Hope, why do we need it, and what difference does it make?

In a restless world of anxiety and heightened conflict, isn’t hope a bit of a luxury? When people are in the midst of struggle does Hope actually achieve anything?

Hope does not disappoint!
