    WorkCamp Dinner & Silent Auction

    Throughout the month of April the High School Youth Group is selling tickets for their Annual Dinner & Silent Auction held on Saturday, April 30. This is a key fundraising effort to support their Workcamp Initiative. Tickets are only $5 each and include a full dinner of pork tenderloin and fixin's prepared by the Knights of Columbus. Make sure you buy your tickets after Mass.

    Raffle tickets for a pair of Adirondack Chairs and a Garden Bench, made by the teens, are also available. Raffle tickets are $5 each and you do not need to be present to win. Catch the teens in the Lobby after each Mass and help send a teen to Workcamp!

    We are also looking for donations for the Silent Auction. Have you done some recent Spring Cleaning? Maybe you would like to donate a service? Please contact Lisa Rimmington at 
    703-799-0714 if you have an item or service to donate for the Silent Auction. Thank you for your support!

    ​Parish Pilgrimage to the Basilica of the National Shrine - April 9

    Middle School BASH - April 16

    BASH is the largest gathering of Catholic middle school students (6th-8th graders) in our diocese every year! This event is a celebration of our Catholic faith and love of the Lord. We are planning for hundreds of junior high students to gather for five and a half hours of faith, fellowship, and fun!
    ​
    The day includes music, games, inspirational speakers, confessions, and Sunday Vigil Mass. Did I mention pizza, ice cream, rock climbing wall and a free throw contest? 

    Meet at GS at 2:00 pm. The event runs from 3:30 - 9:00 pm at St. John Paul the Great HS. Cost is $10 per student.

    Register and complete the online permission by April 10.
