Loving Arlington, Sunday Corporate Worship 2
Weekend Wrap-up A Joyful Noise was made. Many thanks to everyone who walked through the streets around our church, in the rain, singing songs about the birth of Jesus.

Good food; good moon bounce and face paint; good words from good people about good organizations; good attendance (150-175); good conversations; good water balloons; and good (enough) weather.

So, if you’ve come once, you know that we don’t have a big parking lot. Parking is at a premium in Arlington County and our church is no different. We want to be great neighbors to the people who live close to the church. And we would like to change our practice of parking on […]
Friends, This Saturday could be a busy day at Restoration. I want to invite you to participate in these things: 1. 9AM Shoveling Quincy Street: That’s right, we’re taking it back. At the very least we need to clear the space in front of the church, but we’d like to work our way north and […]
