The pastor of Clarendon Presbyterian Church has graciously welcomed our communities to use their worship space for our Holy Thursday and Easter Vigil celebrations, and we thank them for their accommodation. The church is located at the corner of N. Irving and N. Jackson Sts. near 13th St. in Arlington. A map and directions are on the back of this page.

 

On Saturday all are encouraged to bring a dish to share for the dessert social after Mass. Clarendon Presbyterian is starting a vegetable garden for the poor, so if you wish to bring a vegetable plant to assist them in their efforts, that would be a lovely gesture instead of an Easter lily.

 

Collections taken on Thurs. and Sat. will help D/NoVA to defray costs associated with church and hall rental; likewise on Fri. and Sun. with regard to D/W. Thank you for your continued generosity.

Dignity/Northern Virginia

PURPOSE: Dignity/NoVA's primary purpose is to sponsor a weekly mass in the Roman Catholic tradition for the local Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender community of Northern Virginia. In addition to establishing a nurturing community for worship, spiritual development, fellowship and education, we seek to provide a healing outreach to GLBT Catholics by affirming that all people are children of God; and we seek to be a prophetic witness of Jesus' teachings and message to the Church, to the GLBT community, and to society through the spiritually unique and individual experiences of GLBT persons.

We are honored that you are visiting our web site. Being a religious organization, we are always striving to find new ways to get our message out to current and prospective members. This web site allows us to reach people we may never have been able to contact before.

Please use this site to access the information you need about the church and as a resource for broadening your faith. We look forward to hearing from you and answering any questions you might have. .

PASTORAL CARE: If you need confidential assistance, call the Dignity Center number (202) 546-2235 and select Box #2. You will be put in touch with the appropriate person. All calls are kept confidential. If you have need for pastoral counseling, contact any of our priests.
