Are you interested in continuing education no matter your ministry or time availability? Giving Voice has recently purchased a 6-20 user subscription to SLIconnect, the education ministry of Saint Luke Institute. It offers online resources, some free, geared towards growing Catholic clergy, religious and lay leadership and is designed by experts in psychological and spiritual health.
We're gathering in Texas in July!
We hope these virtual conversations will be a chance to meet people and build relationships before the Gathering (especially if it is your first time - welcome!!) and to generate energy and ideas that will shape the in-person Gathering. Any GV Sister is welcome, whether you're coming to the in-person Gathering or not! Also, these conversations are NOT prerequisites for attending the in-person Gathering. We want everything to be as accessible as possible.
Scholarships are now available for NRVC workshop in July 2022.

Every two years, Giving Voice hosts a National Gathering to give opportunities for Catholic Sisters under age 50 to build relationships and provide a space to dream together. The pandemic required us to put our gathering on hold last year, so we are incredibly excited to announce our first National Gathering in three years! The theme of our 2022 gathering is Stir into Flame the Gift of Global Sisterhood.
Reflections on this year's retreat for sisters in their 20s & 30s come from Amanda Carrier, RSM and Kristen Forgotch, ASC.
