This new church is called Commissioned. As Christians, Jesus gave us His great commission in Matthew 28, when he told us to "go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Commissioned has taken this vision and will be fulfilling the calling of Christ in making disciples.
The vision of Commissioned is that it might be a home base for progressive, measureable change throughout Northern Virginia and around the world by making disciples of Jesus. The vision is accomplished through strategic partnerships with community organizations, other like minded churches, missionaries through the world, and Christians like you.
This past Sunday was Kenneth and Amber's last Sunday at Calvary Road Baptist Church where Kenneth has served as a youth pastor for the past 6.5 years. It was a wonderful going away Sunday with much support from the congregation.
The new few weeks will be full of planning, practicing, and accomplishing what needs to be done for the official launch service of Commissioned on September 9th. Commissioned will be meeting at Newington Forest Elementary School in Springfield, VA.
Commissioned will also be having a Community Day on Saturday, August 25th with face painting, moon bounces, hot dogs, cotton candy, popcorn, cake walk, music, and much more. This Community Day will be held on the field next to Newington Forest Elementary School.
Come check us out on Community Day on August 25th and for our first service on September 9th.
