About Me: I’m Mary Catherine. I just graduated from the University of Mary Washington with a bachelor’s in communications and digital studies. Prior to college I was very active in the youth ministry at my home parish at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton in Lakeridge, Va. During my four years of college on winter and summer breaks I was an intern and then last summer I served as a communications intern. While I was there, I helped with various events for the youth, and I found a lot of joy from serving my parish. In college I was involved in my Catholic Campus Ministry serving as service and advertising leaders as well as leading a women’s bible study. Through the internship at my parish and being involved in my campus ministry, I realized how important it was to me to serve in the apostolate and live out my baptismal call. I can’t wait to meet you all and get to work with you.
