Learn from St. Ignatius of Loyola
Have you ever wondered how to really know the path toward God? You might be surprised to know that there is a way to see the path ahead, to know how God is calling you to Himself. St. Ignatius of Loyola teaches us simply to Be Aware, Understand, and Take Action. Join us for this study Tuesday nights beginning July 1.
College Connect
College students! Join Seminarian Sam at the Hermitage fire pit for College Connect, our new St. John’s college summer ministry. On June 29, there will be a potluck at 7p.m., so bring a drink or food or both and enjoy a bonfire and fellowship with other college students from the parish that are also home for the summer.
Pray for Our Priests
Our Archdiocese of Baltimore priests and bishops will be on annual retreat June 23 - 27, 2025. Can you commit to pray, fast & sacrifice for one man that week? Remember, you can keep a certain priest or bishop in mind, but the Holy Spirit will choose how to use your intercession.
Support Youth Ministry This Summer
Our youth and teens are on the move this summer! Please consider helping them get to Damascus summer Catholic camp.

That Man Is You Summer Program
An Introduction to the Theology of the Body: Discovering the Master Plan for Your Life.
