Five New Culture Project Missionaries Begin Service in Philadelphia Archdiocese

Five new missionaries from Culture Project International have started working with young people across the five-county Philadelphia Archdiocese. Bernie Senger IV, Laura Hilkert, Jenna Espiritu, Carlos Hernandez, and Sabrina Vizurraga will spend the next year visiting schools, parishes, and PREP programs.

The missionaries will give presentations to high school students, middle school students, and young adults. These talks cover topics such as human dignity, virtue, authentic love, and the value of living chastely.

Archbishop Nelson J. Pérez approved an official Culture Project chapter for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia in 2021. The group uses Catholic social teaching and the Theology of the Body to help young people recognize human dignity. The Archdiocese provides biographies for the new missionaries and scheduling information for presentations on its Culture Project webpage.
