Summer Series for Kids & School Supply Drive

On Sunday mornings during the month of July, we will have a Summer Series for kids in Preschool - 6th grade. Our theme is "Changemakers" and we will explore Bible stories about people who experienced and brought about a change in the world around them. As part of our Summer Series, we will be collecting school supplies for Fairfax County students. Donations will be distributed by FACETS to students who need them. Please bring your donations to Epiphany by August 6th. You may learn more about FACETS’ Back-to-School mission here: https://facetscares.org/donate/back-to-school-drive/

Ministry Corner

Highlight: Vestry/Visitor's Person of the Day (VPOD)

Are you looking for a way to get involved in a ministry at Epiphany? Explore being a Visitor's Person of the Day. In this awesome ministry, you get to greet and welcome folks for worship on Sunday mornings. Learn how easy it is to prepare coffee and create a simple and welcoming atmosphere for friends, families, and newcomers. This is a service opportunity where you can show long-time parishioners and new friends alike that Jesus loves them, no matter what! Talk to Don, Rev. Dina, or anyone on Vestry about this ministry. We’d love to have you join us!
