For #NCSW2017 Rocky Pierson worked with Pa Ying Vang to create an audio documentary about mission. The documentary discusses the connection between women religious and the new mission being carried out in partnership with lay associates and volunteers. Since the structural changes of Vatican II, many religious communities have gone through changes that place women religious in their local, national, and international communities standing up for social justice causes. As the number of women US religious decreases their programs do not, and this is due to the combined efforts of women religious and the lay people who associate themselves with and work with them. In this documentary, Rocky and Pa Ying will point to sisters and religious communities who have had missions centered around social justice, the new missions that have been influenced by their past efforts, and how they are supporting these efforts into the future.

Pa Ying shares how she learned that you don't have to be religious to have something in common with women religious.
