Whether it's in person or online
We look forward to seeing you this weekend!
Saturday at 5:30 pm / Sunday at 9:30 am & 11:30 am
Families Helping Families is an opportunity for you and your family, or organization / group, to help others this Thanksgiving. As we have for the past 40+ years, SPX will be providing Thanksgiving Baskets and gift cards to families who are in need of food assistance. This outreach program partners with St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Largo, Assumption Parish in S.E. Washington, and the Bowie Interfaith Food Pantry. There are four ways to participate - see the attached flyer for all the details!
We invite you to join us on Wednesday, November 12 at 7 PM (in person or at
SPX Online) for an Evening of Remembrance, where we will name those who have died, remember them, and thank God for their lives through music, prayer, scripture, and reflection. You are invited to bring a small photo or object that reminds you of them. We especially ask you to reach out and invite friends or neighbors who have lost someone in the past year to attend.
Pius Partners assists parishioners who have short-term, non-financial needs during times of illness, birth of a child, death in the family, or other crisis situations. We can assist with cooking and delivering a meal, driving to medical appointments or mass, grocery shopping, light housework, etc.
If you or someone in your family needs assistance, you can fill out the request form at bit.ly/piuspartnersrequest or
call 301-262-2141 for assistance.

Join us on Sunday, December 15 from 6 - 7:30 pm for GIVE: a night of giving and receiving Christmas Joy. Take a walk through the Holy Family’s journey to Bethlehem, get a picture with Santa, sing some carols and enjoy cookies & cocoa with friends. We hope to see you there!
Have you ever considered Becoming Catholic or do you desire to receive Communion at Mass? Wonder what the process is like? We welcome all: people of all faith backgrounds and people of no formal faith, as well as people baptized as Catholics who have not practiced their faith as adults. We will answer your questions, listen to your story, and work with you in the way that is best for you. No strings attached.
Becoming Catholic will hold an Info Meeting on Sunday, January 5th at 10:30 am in the Church Entranceway. You're invited to meet at the Info Desk. Can't make this meeting? Contact Jen Mayer today!
Warm Nights is an interdenominational program in Prince George’s County that provides food and shelter to about 150 homeless adults and children. This year we are being asked to provide bag breakfasts and lunches as well as food items and toiletries. We also collect funds that can be used to provide transportation services and to cover laundromat costs as well as the Easter Basket program. There are many ways to support this mission project.
Jesus knew the best way to form the 12 disciples was to spend time
with them in a group. That is why we offer small groups here at SPX.
Lent is a perfect time to give them a try.
Lenten groups meet for 60 - 90 minutes each week for 5 weeks, starting March 9, either online or in person. We will reflect on our individual Lenten plans, the week's readings, and Fr. Mike's message series, "Let Go and Let God."
Sign up after Masseson the weekends of February 22/23 and March 1/2.
The Feast of the Assumption, is a Holy Day of Obligation. Join us for Mass on Friday, August 15 at 9 am in the Church. Mass will not be livestreamed.
Our Sandwich Ministry is an outgrowth of our parish's support of SOME, a soup kitchen in DC. This is a great way to help feed the hungry that can be done at home, perhaps with your family or small group. Sandwiches should be only meat and cheese, sealed in a baggie. They can be delivered to the coolers located in the CHURCH entranceway on Thursday, August 28th from 9 am - 2 pm. Questions? Contact Leo Green, Jr at leoegreenjr@gmail.com
