Food, fellowship, compelling speaker and GREAT networking!

If you were not at our September general meeting, you missed out! We heard from local celebrity-hero OB-GYN Dr. John Bruchalski about his thoughts on the future of medicine, holistic women's health and his own compelling faith journey from abortion provider to his pro-life foundation and practice.

Many returning faces and some news ones were in attendance, good networking connections were made, great food was consumed and attendees enjoyed Catholic fellowship. Catch us our next event on October 16. Details of that event and the rest of our 2024 events are on the website, with the 2025 events posting soon. See you there!

The chapter meeting to be held on March 22nd in Arlington at the Uncommon Luncheonette has been postponed.  Please consult the event listings for upcoming events.  

Several CBN members were hosted for coffee and a chance to connect with other business people at Paul VI High School on Thursday Nov. 10th.  PVI has a strong business preparation program and brings in local business leaders to talk with high school students about the fields their business is in.  In addition to presentations, PVI is interested in mentorships and internships. If you haven't toured the school it is very impressive and the kids are amazing. Please contact Chris Desmarais at PVI to discuss working with them.
