CELEBRATE 40 YEARS OF LOVE • INVEST IN 40 MORE

Samaritan Ministry of Greater Washington is thrilled to invite you to our 2026 gala taking place from 3 pm to 6 pm on Saturday, November 7th at the beautiful St. Paul’s Center and its sunshine-filled courtyard in Northwest DC.

We are deeply honored that The Rt. Rev. Mariann Budde, Bishop of Washington, will join us to bless the occasion. Mindy’s Catering will provide the cuisine, and jazz saxophonist Eddie Baccus, Jr. will serenade everyone!

The gala is not just a one-day event, however — it’s a critical campaign aimed at raising $200,000 to help position Samaritan for a strong finish to 2026 and fortify the organization for a great start to its next 40 years!
