Dear Friends of The Shepherd Foundation,
We are delighted to invite you to our Annual Mass & Reception on Saturday, November 22, 2025 at 5:00 PM at St. Bartholomew’s Catholic Church, Bethesda, Maryland.
The Mass will be co-celebrated by Monsignor John Enzler, Pastor Mark Smith, and others with beautiful music by the Archbishop Carroll High School Choir. Following Mass, please join us for a reception in the parish hall beginning at 6:00 PM.
The Shepherd Foundation provides need-based tuition assistance so that more families in the Archdiocese of Washington can afford a Catholic education. From the beginning -- 38 years ago --we've ensured that 100% of every gift flows entirely to tuition assistance for families in need. And, this year, thanks to the generosity of donors like you, we were able to support 100% of the Archdiocese’s elementary and high schools.
We look forward to gathering together in fellowship, faith, and gratitude—and to continuing the mission of making Catholic education possible for more families.
