Welcome to our LV Shared Blog, a space to capture the thoughts and experiences of the 2020-2021 Lasallian Volunteers— 30 voices strong with a lot to say. Each of their posts will reflect on different aspects of their journey through a year of faith, service, and community as they serve those in need throughout the United States. You will hear from a different LV who will be sharing a little about their service year. May their stories inspire you to make an impact as they remember, reflect and write.
