We’re excited to launch Sacred Stories, Living Justice—a new CVN initiative rooted in the belief that storytelling can help us see one another more deeply, recognize the dignity of every person, and inspire action for justice.

Through this project, we’ll listen to and share stories from people shaped by service and community.

“Youth lead. Adults accompany. Elders share wisdom. Together, they design service rooted in the real stories of their community.”
— Sacred Stories, Living Justice framework

✨ Parish applications are now open!

This project is part of the Drexel Project, NFCYM Initiative on Faith and Service.

🎥 Watch the sneak peek and join us as we explore what it means to be Called to More.
