Scholarship Fund

Dear Diocesan Director:

This brief note is to inform you that a temporary scholarship fund has been established to assist diocesan directors of religious education to attend the NCCL Annual Conference. As you well know, natural disasters, settlements of lawsuits, and diocesan downsizing have placed budgetary restrictions on many diocesan religious education offices. This has resulted in the inability of some diocesan directors to attend the annual conference. If, for these or other reasons, you need financial help in order to attend the 2007 annual conference, please consider this opportunity to apply for financial assistance.

It is important for NCCL to have your presence and your voice as we continue to advocate for and develop the ministry of catechesis. Your insight and experience, and the needs of the catechetical community of your (arch)diocese will be missing if you do not attend the annual conference in Columbus.

We hope all is going well in your ministry.

Blessings and Christ's peace.

NCCL Scholarship Committee :

Anne Roat, Diocese of Lafayette, chairperson
Sr. Margaret Kuntz, Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee
Daniel Luby, Diocese of Fort Worth
Jim Kemna, Diocese of Jefferson City
Pete Ries, Diocese of Lansing
