🌳 Life Group Kickoff! 🎉

Yesterday was such a sweet time together at Chessie’s Big Backyard as we kicked off our Life Groups for the fall! We enjoyed good food, fellowship, and time getting to know one another as we look forward to growing together in Christ this season. ❤️

Life Groups are a great opportunity to move beyond Sunday morning—to build deeper relationships, encourage one another, study God’s Word, pray together, and do life alongside our church family.

We’re excited to have four Life Groups available this fall!

📍 Lorton Group
🗓 Mondays | 6:00–8:00 PM

📍 Lorton Group
🗓 Tuesdays | 6:00–8:00 PM

📍 Woodlawn Group
🗓 Thursdays | 5:45–7:30 PM

📍 Mt. Vernon Group
🗓 Tuesdays | 6:00–8:00 PM

For more information on each of these Life Groups, visit our website!

Whether you’ve been at our church for years or you’re brand new, there’s a place for you! We’d love for you to get connected and experience the encouragement and community that comes from doing life together.

“Encourage one another and build one another up.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:11

We can’t wait to see what God does through our Life Groups this fall! 🙌

Pease join us for From Every Place to One Table, a women’s fellowship night of food, friendship, and stories of God’s faithfulness throughout our years.

Bring a dish connected to a favorite place you have lived, loved, visited, called home, or even a favorite duty station along the way.

Though we come from many places and many seasons of life, Christ has brought us into one family through the gospel, and for this season together. Together, we’ll enjoy a meal, hear one another’s stories, and remember the faithful God who welcomes us in Christ and teaches us to welcome one another.

“The Bible does not give us a tidy explanation for every particular trial that we endure, but the Bible does give us something better than an abstract answer. God gives us Himself in Jesus Christ. The deepest answer to all of the darkness in Psalm 88 is not an idea. It is the person of Jesus.”

Zachariah led us through Psalm 88 showing us that “faithful lament does not deny pain; rather, it brings that pain before God."

May we keep looking to Christ as we pray through the suffering and lament with other sufferers. What a wonderful Sunday together! 🤍

We were blessed to welcome a team from Amherst Baptist Church from Buffalo, NY, who came all the way to Northern Virginia to serve us! ❤️

During their visit, this incredible team poured their time, energy, and skills into both our church and Woodlawn Chapel at Fort Belvoir. What a gift it was to see this group tend to these spaces and prepare them to continue serving our community.

We are thankful for their willingness to travel, serve, work hard, and encourage us. What a beautiful reminder that the church is bigger than any one local congregation—we are family, and we get to serve the Lord together!

May God use these spaces for His glory and for the continued spread of the Gospel in our community! 🙏
