Deacon Mary McCue
August 24, 1947—December 28, 2023
REST IN PEACE
Our Deacon Mary McCue passed away December 28, 2023, at her home, in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, DC. A beloved member of our parish staff since 2017, Deacon Mary faithfully served our parish in liturgical ministry and pastoral care. She shepherded our Intercessory Prayer Team and our newly formed quarterly Breakfast of Champions for Seniors, as well as outreach to those in need beyond our church walls (in particular, Thomas House senior community and our “Sandwiches in the City” Sunday lunch ministry). Always a cheerful and positive presence, she will be greatly missed.
Rest eternal grant unto Mary, O LORD: and let light perpetual shine upon her. May she rest in peace. Amen. May her soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen. |
