Bishops Lenten Appeal
The 2022 Bishop’s Lenten Appeal (BLA) is now underway!

This 2-minute video gives a snapshot of the many programs and ministries funded by the BLA, which help parishes and parishioners throughout the Diocese of Arlington. Please prayerfully consider supporting the BLA,
 as we continue
the Mission of Jesus Christ!

Your gift before Ash Wednesday will provide reassurance as we look ahead with hope to support additional outreach and BLA ministries.
The Diocese of Arlington has received a challenge gift which will match new or increased donations. So, every dollar donated above your last BLA gift amount will be matched up to $500,000. And if you are donating for the first time to the BLA, your entire
donation will be matched!

Thank you and God bless you!
