The Diocese of Arlington continues to be a faith-filled and thriving diocese! 2025 was the Universal Jubilee Year of Hope, and in Arlington we opened our hearts to God’s love and mercy.

“As we look back on this grace-filled year, may we give thanks to God for His countless blessings and renew our commitment to live as Pilgrims of Hope – people of faith, mercy and joy,” said Bishop Michael F. Burbidge of the Diocese of Arlington.

Some highlights from our 2025 Annual Report, released on Thursday, December 18 include:

25,677 meals served at Christ House in Alexandria, up more than 25% from 2024
