The John Carroll Society

Welcome to the website of the John Carroll Society, as we prepare to celebrate next year the 75th anniversary of our founding in 1951 under the then leadership and guidance of Archbishop O’Boyle, only three short years after the founding of the Archdiocese of Washington in 1948. The Society is dedicated to enhancing the spiritual, intellectual, and social fellowship of its members. On this website, you will find the many events the Society will hold this year. The success of these wonderful events depends upon your involvement and attendance.

The Society is committed to the mission of evangelization at work and home. The events of the Society are a terrific way to enrich your faith. Reach out to your friends and acquaintances and bring them to a John Carroll Society event. Doing so is not only a nice gesture, but also a source of prayerful and meaningful enjoyment.

In a special way, we look forward to your involvement in the Red Mass and the Rose Mass as we dedicate ourselves to honoring those who give so generously year in and year out to those in our community most in need of assistance. Thank you for your continuing support of the Society. I look forward to seeing you at our many wonderful events with our Chaplain, Monsignor Vaghi, and our Archbishop, Robert Cardinal McElroy.

Faithfully in Christ,

David Florenzo
President
