Sing ‘n Celebrate with Time for Healing ~ April 7 at 7pm

When this SNC arrives, we will be one week past Easter. What a great time to celebrate the Risen Lord and all that means to us and every Christian!! Jesus’ words of “Fear not”are now more relevant than ever before.

Join us as we consider this message here in Fairfax, VA, wherever there are needs for physical, emotional or spiritual healing. Jesus would be overjoyed to see us trusting in His power to heal and glorify His Father.

If healing is needed, feel free to come forward when Pastor Kenny invites you to come to the Time For Healing.
