In June 2022, St. Francis of Assisi Parish will celebrate its 50th anniversary as a faith community in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Washington. We kicked off our festivities on October 3, 2021, at our Feast Day Picnic. Join the Planning Committee organizing our parish’s 50th anniversary celebration and visit this page for updates on what is happening.
 

• Our anniversary theme is "Made in God's Image -- All Are Welcome!" Buy merchandise -- including T-shirts, beanie caps, and face masks -- branded with our 50th anniversary logo.

 

• Our anniversary festivities will culminate with an Anniversary Mass at our church in 2022. But there are lots of smaller events, including fundraisers, that we need people to coordinate and run. If you are interested in joining the 50th Anniversary Planning Committee, please contact Linda and Sylvia.

As we prepare to commemorate our 50th anniversary as a Catholic community in Derwood, MD, St. Francis of Assisi, pray for us!
