We offer service opportunities that allow our congregation to experience serving here in Loudoun County by partnering with local organizations in order to come alongside and meet the needs of the individual and/or the community. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many. -- Mark 10:4Our local outreach efforts include the following priority areas:School Partnerships - we are partnering fully with Sterling Elementary School and Sully Elementary School as our focus schools. This is because both of these schools are Title 1 schools which means that over 50% of the school population qualify for free or reduced lunch. We also work in partnership with the Parent Liaisons and other officials of the following local schools:Trailside Middle School - https://www.lcps.org/trailsideFarmwell Station Middle School - https://www.lcps.org/farmwellStone Bridge High School - https://www.lcps.org/sbhsBroad Run High School - https://www.lcps.org/brhsDiscovery Elementary School - https://www.lcps.org/desMeadowland Elementary School - https://www.lcps.org/meadowlandSterling Middle School - https://www.lcps.org/smsFor more information, please go to our Adopt A School webpage.Operation Homefront - We, here at Christian Fellowship Church, have a true heart for the military and their families. We engage in year-round of the support of Operation Homefront and their local efforts in serving the families in the Metro DC area and beyond. Work Projects - We serve by accomplishing a variety of home repairs and improvements both inside and outside of local homes. Painting, repairing, replacing, landscaping, mulching, home maintenance, minor electrical work, and more will be included in the tasks. You do not need to attend CFC to be a candidate to receive such help.Jail/Prison Ministry - One of Jesus' mandates in Mathew 25 was to 'visit those in prison'. This ministry manifests in annual Christmas gifts to the children of incarcerated persons who live in Loudoun County; quarterly fellowship events sponsored by CFC Local Outreach; and mentoring of children; women-to-women and men-to-men discipleship prior to; just after; and for an extended period after their release.Community Development - We engage directly in communities and apartment complexes for the sole purpose of building relationships and, thus, building community. This features about 4 events per year sponsored by CFC Local Outreach but a great deal of opportunity to volunteer year-round for the betterment of the community and to share God's love.Food Pantry - We do two major food drives per year. The first one typically takes place during the lent season leading up to Easter and benefits the work of Loudoun Hunger Relief. This is strategic in that just after the pantry's shelves are empty leading into Easter we, thru God's people fill the shelves! The second food drive is part of the Backpack Buddies program which benefits children right here in Loudoun County thru our school partnerships. Backpack Buddies is a program to feed students who largely depend on school lunches as their primary food source. About 1 in 4 school children in Loudoun County are uncertain where their next meal will come from. The program provides food items such as cereal, fruit cups, soup, and snack bars that can be prepared by children when they are home alone. We also are involved in homeless shelters, medical services, sports programs, and much more!For more information, please contact Mike Trivett at mtrivett@cfcwired.org or 703-724-4907 or 703-258-2435.
