Holy Name Society

Contacts: Lawrence Parks

The Saint Augustine Holy Name Society calls together the men of this parish and serves to help strengthen their faith, encourage their spirituality and instill in them a confidence born in Christ. As members, we accept and acknowledge that it is our reverence to the Holy Name of Jesus, our awareness of His gracious gifts and our witness to His Good News that inspire us to strive to walk in His footsteps and serve as examples to all, especially our youth.

The Holy Name Society sponsors a breakfast and a graduation reception each June to honor the graduating class of St. Augustine School.

Greg Schaffer, George Washington University Catholic chaplain, the keynote speaker at the June 2012 breakfast for the Class of 2012 and their families.
