  • PRAY FOR THE SICK

    Father of goodness and love; hear our prayers for the sick members of our community and for all who are in need.  Amid mental and physical suffering may they find consolation in your healing presence.  Show your mercy as you close wounds, cure illness, make broken bodies whole and free deliverance, and so join us in thanking you for all your gifts.  We ask this through the lord Jesus who healed those who believed. Amen.

    • OUR TEENS MAKE A DIFFERENCE
      Teens from our parish are making a difference. As part of an English project, Mia Giglio's class proposed a fundraiser to raise money for Shared Hope International, a non-profit organization that works to bring an end to sex trafficking around the world and help effected victims. As part of the fundraiser, the students set up a Go Fund Me page for Shared Hope International with a goal of $500. If you would like to help these students surpass their goal, as well as help victims of sex trafficking, please donate at bit.ly/sharedhopefundraiser. To learn more about the issue, cause, or other ways to help, visit the Shared Hope website at www.sharedhope.org or call at 703-351-8062.

    • PENTECOST SUNDAY
      The promised Spirit has come and gives life to the Church. Pentecost was not just an event or experience, but the beginning of a movement which continues to this very moment. Our Church, enlivened and motivated by the same Spirit, summons us to go out and transform a world seemingly distant from the gospel and its values. The Spirit, living in us, yearns to touch the lives of others. Because of the Holy Spirit, we too have been changed. Let the Spirit move you, or as Paul says, “don’t stifle the Spirit.” We are accountable.

  • phony emails and phone calls

    UPDATE 4/17/19:

     THIS MORNING A SERIES OF FAKE TEXTS/EMAILS FROM
    'FR. STEVEN SHADWELL".  THESE ARE A SCAM - PLEASE DELETE.

    Someone with an affiliation with the parish (parishioner, staff, etc.) had their address book hacked.  The hackers are using the email addresses and, in some instances phone numbers, to impersonate Fr. Steve or  Msgr. Carroll and social engineer others in that address book.  Don’t respond to any of these solicitations.  To protect yourself, please change your email password as you could have been the  party compromised.    Please delete these emails.  No one from the Parish will be sending emails requesting favors.  Thank you!
