Beacon of Light Gala







BEACON OF LIGHT GALA
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6TH
6:00 in the evening
SAWGRASS MARRIOTT
On behalf of Father Richard Pagano, you are invited to attend the Third Annual Beacon of Light Gala happening Friday, October 6th at 6:00 in the evening at the Sawgrass Marriott. Please consider participating through a sponsorship, attending as a guest, hosting a table, donating an auction item, or as a volunteer. The black-tie evening will be made up of a cocktail hour with a mobile bidding silent auction, passed hor d’ouevres, open bar, photo ops and music followed by a formal dinner program, live auction and a special message from Fr. Richard Pagano about the Light to the Nations Capital Campaign. The evening will conclude with live music and dancing!
The Third Annual Beacon of Light Gala will directly benefit the Light to the Nations Capital Campaign. The capital campaign will fund the build out of our sanctuary and campus at St. John Paul II Catholic Church to provide our community, local and digital, with a place of beauty, education, prayer, and meditation in a world of chaos and uncertainty.
For Gala items such as booking a discounted hotel room (limited quantity available), auction item procurement forms, ticket and sponsorship information, see below.

At St. John Paul II, it is the community of parishioners, working together to serve God and to serve one another, that enriches our lives and helps us grow in love as God’s people. See how you can help!
