On Sunday, September 6th, the Augustinian Volunteers commissioned their 21st class of volunteers in an untraditional manner. Due to the pandemic, volunteers were unable to gather in person. Instead, volunteers, alumni, friends, family, friars, and AV staff, gathered on Zoom for a virtual Mass. Volunteers each shared their commitment statement, an expression of their goals and motivations for their year of service. This year, volunteers will be serving in Philadelphia, PA, San Diego, CA and Ventura, CA. While this year will certainly be different, they are excited for the opportunity for a meaningful experience of service, community, and spirituality.
