NCR: Vocation conference offers space for 'one foot in, one foot out' Catholics
NEW YORK — A weekend conference examining Catholic vocation was held March 29-30 at Union Theological Seminary, a bastion of liberal Protestantism in upper Manhattan.
The location was significant: This particular conference on "(Re)Imagining Catholic Vocation" could not be held at most Catholic venues.
Sponsored by Call to Action, the event, according to organizer Abby Rampone, was directed at those Catholic ministers who feel they have "one foot in and one foot out" of the church, as well as those with "both feet in and both feet out."
