Run for Vocations is a 13-year-old ministry that supports vocations by raising funds to assist seminarians with unanticipated expenses. Laypeople, religious and clergy from around the Archdiocese of Washington have teamed up to Run for Vocations in October’s Marine Corps Marathon /10K. The St. Matthew’s Team has committed to raising at least $250 per person ($500 for the marathoners) to support our Archdiocesan seminarians, and we invite you to support this mission by making an offering. We will collect donations after Mass on Saturday and Sunday, October 12 and 13, in the form of cash or check payable to "Archdiocese of Washington."

Can’t make it to Mass this Sunday? Please drop off your donation in the Rectory or visit http://www.dcpriest.org/promote/run-for-vocations/donations (specify that the donation is for the St. Matthew’s Team).
