2016 Partner Conference 
"Collaboration" 

We invite you to our twelfth annual Catholics on Call Partner Conference. Each year the conference brings together campus ministers, vocation directors, and other young adult ministers from around the country to engage in conversation and discussion about how to support Catholic young adults as they strive to discover God’s call in their lives and explore the possibility of a life of service in the Church. 

A vital element of ministry is the sharing of mission. Clergy, those in consecrated life and laity are called to collaborate in fulfilling the mission of the church. Our keynote speakers will offer a fresh perspective on collaboration, rooting it in sound spirituality, tradition, and practice. Together we will explore ways of collaboration, through sharing promising practices, identifying pastoral strategies, and engaging participants in reflection on their own ministries. 

 

Keynote speakers
 

Fr. Frank S. Donio, S.A.C., D.Min., Director of the Catholic Apostolate Center and Provincial Rector of the Immaculate Conception Province of the Society of the Catholic Apostolate.
Barbara Humphrey McCrabb, M.Div., Assistant Director for Higher Education, Secretariat of Catholic Education at the United States Conference of Catholic  Bishops.  
They will give us two presentations: "Theology of collaboration" and "Collaboration in ministry"
