Voices Of Our World

Summer 2026

Summer brings, in our Vocation Ministries Office, a time of change as Fr. Rodrigo Ulloa, our Director of Vocation Ministries, departs this ministry with much gratitude for the blessings he’s experienced through it.  In our Summer 2026 newsletter, Fr. Rodrigo offers parting words and photos that look back over his past six years as Vocation Director.  As Fr. Rodrigo remarks, “Praying our goodbyes is part of being a missioner… In moving on to my next assignment – our Formation House in Chicago – my bag is full of joy and my heart is bigger with the love of Christ, in whom we move, live, and have our being.”  We are grateful to Fr. Rodrigo for his years of service in vocation ministries.

We also announce the tentative dates of our next “Come and See” missionary discernment retreat — October 16th to 18th in Chicago, Illinois.  Please consider joining us for a weekend of insight, inspiration and encouragement in your own discernment of God’s call to missionary priesthood or Brotherhood.  If you would like to learn more, please email us at vocation@maryknoll.org.

Have a blessed summer!

    Join Robert Ellsberg, publisher of Orbis Books, in this One On One interview with author Marjorie Corbman, as they discuss Divine Rage: Malcolm X's Challenge to Christians.  The impact of Malcolm X’s apocalyptic vision—in which the world’s oppressed would join together to make God’s righteous judgment on racism, colonialism, and all forms of slavery—galvanized, outraged, and troubled many. In Divine Rage educator Marjorie Corbman explores how Christian activists and theologians wrestled with it, from Congregational ministry Rev. Albert B. Cleage, Jr., to a young Black scholar, James H. Cone, to Catholic monk and writer Thomas Merton, to queer activists of color Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera.Marjorie Corbman is an educator and scholar working as an academic director at Mansfield Hall, a residential living-learning community for neurodivergent college students in Burlington, VT. Alumna of the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London (MA) and Fordham University (PhD), Corbman was assistant professor in the department of theology and religious studies at Molloy College from 2020 to 2022.Get your copy today: https://maryknoll.link/3b04ce#MarjorieCorbman  MalcomX #RobertEllsberg #OrbisBooks
