Get involved and join in with over 20 Loudoun Ministry Partners http://www.loudounawakening.org/ who have joined us to declare God’s Word over Loudoun County this year.

There is a Special Teen Night on Monday, April 30th from 6:00 PM to Midnight hosted by Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). Invite your youth and school groups to join in!

People have asked about the value of a public reading of the Word of God. There is great Old Testament precedent for the recognition in that great book-centered worship service reported in Nehemiah 8:8, “They [the priests] read from the book, from the Law of God, clearly, and they gave it sense so that the people understood the reading.”

Our earnest desire is to reveal to our community the powerful Word of God. The Bibles transforming power is guaranteed. Jesus Christ set the example of how important the Word was to Him and should be to us. When tempted by Satan, Jesus quoted the Word. “Man does not live by bread alone; but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.” – Matthew 4:4 and Deuteronomy 8:3.

National Day of Prayer May 3rd

Join Priests, Pastors, elected officials, business leaders and community leaders for brunch before the National Day of Prayer event from 12:00 to 1:00 PM at the Gazebo outside of Ida Lee Park.
