The latest installment of the Faces of Hope video series is now live on CatholicPhilly. As part of the Trust and Hope initiative launched by Archbishop Nelson J. Pérez, these stories showcase the profound impact of faith-driven service across the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.
In today’s Faces of Hope story, we meet Pauline Father Timothy Tarnacki, director of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia’s Office of Ministry with Young Adults. Father Tarnacki felt called to serve young adults but struggled to figure out how. He prayed, failed, and waited. Then one unexpected phone call led to the beginning of a thriving ministry.
