Catholic Information Center

About this church

The Catholic Information Center is a Catholic intellectual and sacramental hub at 1501 K Street NW, Suite 175, in downtown Washington, D.C., serving professionals who live and work in the capital. It is a corporation of the Archdiocese of Washington. Its Chapel of St. Josemaría Escrivá offers daily Mass Monday through Friday at noon, with confessions before and after Mass, Eucharistic adoration after Mass from 1 to 2 p.m., and spiritual direction by appointment. The chapel is described as the closest tabernacle to the White House.

Beyond the sacraments, the center hosts evening lectures, panel discussions, and book launches, along with formation programs run with partner Catholic organizations and institutes. Family-friendly book parties for local parents and children are held on select Saturday mornings. A bookstore is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and a podcast, video archive, and newsletter are available online. Visitors can submit prayer requests through the website, and Mass intentions can be arranged by phone. No Sunday Mass appears on the site, so confirm hours and the current schedule before visiting.
