Potluck – Saturday, March 16th at 12:00pm
Potlucks are a great opportunity for newcomers and longtime members alike to gather so please come on out, bring a dish or drink, and have a great time with fellow young souls. If there is interest, we can hold a moment of reflection and sharing, as well.

Fellowship and Discussion Group: Social Justice and You – Wednesday, March 20th from 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
In 2024, it seems like there are so many injustices in the world shouting out for our attention. Especially when the needs of our friends, our families, and ourselves compete with our desire to address these injustices, how do we choose what to dedicate ourselves to? Come for a friendly discussion on social justice and how to effectively and meaningfully engage with our world. Snacks to share are appreciated!
Readers for Relief Used Book Sale – Sunday, March 24th at 11:45am
Young Souls invites the All Souls community to a used book sale in the All Souls dining room after service. All funds raised will be donated to Medical Aid for Palestinians. Unsold books will be donated to Turning the Page. To donate gently used books of any genre, bring yours to the event or contact Toni Lewis: tdl28@georgetown.edu or 336-402-9754.
Drinks at All Souls Bar! -Tuesday, March 26th at 6:00pm
Come hang with Young Souls at the only bar in DC named after our church! If you’re new (or newish) to our community, this gathering is a great chance to get to know folks!
