According to the discipline of the Catholic Church, Catholics are required to abstain from eating meat on Fridays during Lent. A dispensation from this requirement is granted to all Catholics who attend the Catholic Charities Gala on Friday, April 5, 2019, with the expectation that all who avail themselves of this dispensation will perform another act of penance in the upcoming week. May God bless you during this holy season of Lent. Thank you for your support of Catholic Charities, which helps us to minister to the neediest and most vulnerable people in our archdiocese.
For more information on attending the 2019 Gala, please contact Kimani Superville or call 202-772-4331.
