Samaritan Ministry’s Spring Celebration!


Once again due to the weather, we regret that we had to postpone Samaritan Ministry’s Mardi Gras celebration planned for Saturday, February 13. But, we are not giving up! We have changed the theme of the event and rescheduled it for Saturday, March 20 - the first day of spring – please mark your calendar now and save the date!

There will be hors d'oeuvres, drinks, music, live and silent auctions, and a brief program honoring those who made it possible for us to buy the N.W. Washington, D.C. house that serves as our main office.
