For "All Stages of Formation"

Don't miss out on the next VCI. It has life-transforming potential. Consider what one participant said recently: "I would recommend this program to all religious in all stages of formation... Not only because of the exceptional instructors and subject matter, but moreover because of the spirit in which the program is run... that Spirit of contemplation which draws us together as one community, not merely many different religious institutes, but one large institute of religious communities... as one community of God."

Another participant simply said "I have never had such a profound, educational and enjoyable experience in a classroom."

 

Awaking of Renewed Fervor

The Vita Consecrata Institute can benefit any priest, religious or consecrated person. Not only does it provide opportunity for graduate credit, but its greatest benefit is the awakening of renewed fervor to the grace of one's vocation. It is a program that even novice directors will want to bring their novices. The coming together of many religious of various congregations adds to the richness of the experience.

— Fr. Thomas Nelson, O.Praem
National Director
