Our 60th Anniversary LogoWith the launch of the USCCB's Eucharistic Revival on Corpus Christi Sunday 2022, the SJV community proudly honors the true and real presence of Jesus transformed in the Blessed Sacrament. It is in this daily, joyous encounter with Christ during the Mass that our souls are healed, converted, formed and unified, to be sent out on mission to glorify God with our lives. This communion, as a personal relationship with our living God, is both the source and summit of our faith and hope of things to come. Fed by this sacrament, the members of the universal, Catholic Church are strengthened to love and serve God and neighbor.
