Meet the World3:00 pm – 4:30 pm
Thanks for your desire to learn more about where Fairfax Community Church “meets the world” and how you can be a part. “Meet the World: Preparing for Global Impact” is a series of four once-a-month sessions to help equip and prepare people for service on global impact teams. This training will help you develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to serve as a “high impact/low maintenance” member of our mission teams.In the coming year we will be sending teams to Haiti, Lebanon, Zambia, Kenya and the Dominican Republic. Many skills are needed to meet the needs expressed by our ministry partners. We need medical personnel, teachers, IT specialists, grant writers, people who love to work with children, people with business experience, accountants, people with financial expertise…the list goes on and on! Most importantly, we want people who have a heart for service and who sense God’s prompting to go.
The size of the teams will range from 2-3 members to 6-8 members. It is very important that the teams we send out are well prepared in order to have maximum Kingdom impact. Participation in this course is required to go on a global impact trip. Please contact Alan MacDonald if you hope to go on a global impact trip but are unable to participate during the dates the training will be held.

Each gathering, we highlight one organization to learn about who they are and what they do; receive their most up to date prayer requests; and spend a significant time in prayer. To understand how our partners are, we watch videos and host missionaries and guest speakers to talk specifically about our partners.

Family Dedications (all-day)Jun 16 – Jun 17
What is Family Dedication?
Our theology concerning family dedication is that it is a commitment of Christian parents to raise their child in a loving Christian home, to model the love of Christ, and to be connected to the Body of Christ. This is not the same theologically as infant baptism, which we do not practice.
When are the next Dedications?
Dedications are held on Father’s Day Weekend each year at all four services. (Sat 5:00 PM, Sun 9:30 AM, 11:15 AM, 5:00 PM). You can choose which service you would like to have your child dedicated at. The next dedication will be held on Father’s Day weekend, June 16 & 17, 2012.
What is Dedication like?
Our Father’s Day Weekend services will be designed around the dedications and the unique role that parents play in the lives of their children. Rod will ask the families to come forward for the dedication, after introducing you and your child to the congregation, he will invite extended family members and friends to participate by joining you up front during the time of prayer and dedication. In this special service we recognize the blessing of children, and the unique, important role of parents. It is also a time to pray over the child and commission the parents to raise their child in a loving, Christian home, to model the love of Christ, and to be connected to the Body of Christ (the church).
A photograph of everyone participating in the service will be taken by a professional photographer. After the dedication service you will receive a special memorable keepsake from this event.
Can we Dedicate two of our children at the same time?
We understand there are many reasons why you want to dedicate two or more of your children at the same time. We are happy to accommodate this request.
How old are the children who participate in the Dedications?
The majority of children who are dedicated are infants and toddlers, on occasion older children participate for various reasons.
How do I sign up?
The first step when you decide if you would like to participate in the service, is to register online. Register Here.
The second step in preparing for this event is to write a letter to your child. This can only be one page long, and no more than 3 paragraphs. We also ask you send us 4 pictures of your child (single and family photos). Your pictures will be displayed during the service, and we will also provide a special memorable keepsake of this day for your family. Please note, your child will not be considered registered for this event until we receive your letter and photos. Please email your letter and photos to corinnepowell@fairfax.cc by June 10.
We really encourage you to take this opportunity to write down what this day means to you as a parent. Your letter can be a reflection of the significance of this day; a prayer for your child; or a letter of encouragement regarding your hopes and dreams for your child. Our staff would love to help you and offer guidance in writing this letter if you feel you need help getting started! Please just contact us!
If you have any questions, please contact corinnepowell@fairfax.cc or call 703-745-1030.
