The Raphael Endowment for Youth Ministry assists the Catholic Diocese of Arlington in guiding high school youth in their journey toward adulthood by providing financial support to programs that provide opportunities for youth to forge a closer relationship with Jesus Christ and programs that foster Youth Ministry vocations. The purpose of this endowment is to provide annual funding for new, extraordinary or special programs beyond normal operations, and to fund the Office of Youth, Campus, and Young Adult Ministries to include activities such as WorkCamp, Rally, and World Youth Day.
Your gift to the endowment is an investment in the spiritual formation and future leadership of the Church. By contributing to this endowment, you help ensure that future generations of young Catholics will have the resources and opportunities they need to grow in faith, discern their vocation, and live as bold witnesses to the Gospel. Your generosity will echo in the lives of youth for years to come — forming disciples today, and leaders for tomorrow.
