FUPCDC is now certified as an Earth Care Congregation

EARTH CARE MISSION STATEMENT

LET THE TREES OF THE FOREST SING,
LET THEM SING FOR JOY BEFORE THE LORD.
1 Chronicles 16:33

In answer to God’s calling to care for all of creation, First United Presbyterian Church of Dale City strives to promote more sustainable living, practice environmental stewardship, and by our actions, be witnesses to the need to lovingly care for our beautiful earth so that future generations may enjoy the bounty that God has provided for us.

The Earth Care Team is always looking for new members. Contact Liz Glyer at lizglyer@gmail.com if you would like to learn more about how you can make difference!

PROM ATTIRE COLLECTION

As part of the Earth Care Team’s work to be better stewards of the earth, while also helping others, we will be collecting Prom Attire on March 9 and 16 to benefit the program Hope for Appalachia - https://hfavateam.com/prom-dress-ministry-1

Perhaps you or your children have prom attire that is sitting in your closet - why not donate it to this worthwhile cause to help young folks enjoy their prom, while also keeping more items out of the landfill!

Contact: Liz Glyer at lizglyer@gmail.com for more information.
