Fr. Charles Smith

Spiritual Director

Father Smith's journey to the priesthood took him from Florida to Virginia, where he attended diocesan Catholic schools, including Holy Spirit, St. Michael's, and O'Connell High School. He continued his education at George Mason University, earning a degree in International Studies in 1987. For the next twelve years, he worked in banking, government contracting, and insurance sales while residing in Reston, Virginia. However, his calling led him to St. Charles Seminary in Philadelphia, where he was ordained in 2006. Father Smith has since served in various assignments, most recently at St. Raymond in Springfield, before becoming the pastor of St. John the Evangelist parish in Warrenton. He also serves as chaplain for the Arlington Diocesan Council of Catholic Women and enjoys reading, hiking, and connecting with his parishioners.
