Our "Jerusalem"

ARLINGTON FOOD ASSISTANCE CENTER (AFAC)

Members of Memorial are encouraged to bring canned and non-perishable goods to church which are shared with AFAC each month. AFAC distributes groceries, directly and free of charge, to people living in Arlington who cannot afford to purchase enough food to meet their basic needs. The AFAC box is located in the Fellowhsip Hall, and members are encouraged to bring food to place in the box for donation.

PathForward

Members and friends of Memorial prepare 80 meals for Arlington's homeless once a month. Our cooking team can always use some extra hands to help prepare and serve the meals, which takes only a few hours each month. The hot meals are prepared on the third Sunday afternoon each month, and delivered directly to homeless and needy people at two locations in our community.

CHRIST HOUSE

The mission of Christ House is to provide comprehensive and compassionate health care to sick, homeless persons in the District of Columbia, and to assist them in addressing critical issues to help break the cycle of homelessness. Memorial partners by occasionally preparing a meal for Christ House participants and financially through our Global Missions Plan.

CITY GATE

City Gate is an urban ministry in Washington, DC, seeking to open doors of opportunity, empowerment, and friendship for youth in the city and for internationals.  City Gate seeks to renew communities by empowering those on the margins of society, create partnerships that address the needs of urban youth, and to harness the energy and abilities of volunteers.  Memorial partners with one of the City Gate sites: Overland Garden Apartment (Landover, MD).  We come alongside the Overland Garden children and their site director, Amie, for a few days in the summer as they go to summer camp as well as helping provide supplies for the program throughout the year.

THE INSTITUTE FOR JUSTICE FORMATION

The Institute for Justice Formation @ Leland Seminary (IJF) exists: (1) to investigate and promote the transformational character of biblical justice for leaders and communities, and (2) to advocate—across all vocations—for leaders and lay persons in public marketplaces and private domains to do what is right and just intrinsically, to be a ‘profile in courage.’ Employing the multi-pronged investigative approach of worship, education, advocacy, and evaluation (plus systemic feedback) pursuant to its vision and mission, IJF will accomplish relevant and evolving goals and objectives through the synthesis or convergence of these approaches.
