Outside These Walls.
Baby Bottle Campaign. A little change can go a long way to help minister to a woman or teen faced with an unplanned pregnancy.

Filled bottles will be collected on May 1 and 2. We will have an informational meeting on May 3 at 7pm for those who are interested in being involved in this new ministry. Contact the church office if you are planning to attend the meeting.
Monthly Collection Focus. During the month of April we will be collecting prom dresses, shoes and accessories for Fairfax County's Princess for a Night project.
