Generosity for Justice & Community
Fairlington UMC is a beacon of justice, compassion, and hope—feeding the hungry, housing families, welcoming immigrants, and caring for creation. Your generosity makes this possible. Complete your 2026 Generosity Card in worship on October 19 or 26, or online, and help us build a world where love and justice flourish.

Taizé Prayer Service
Join us on the first Wednesday of each month at 7 PM in the Chapel at Fairlington UMC for a peaceful Taizé Prayer Service. Hosted by FairlingtonUMC, Fairlington Presbyterian, and St. Clement Episcopal Churches, this ecumenical service offers music, prayer, candlelight, and silence in the spirit of the Taizé community.

StepALIVE! Walkathon
Join us for the 44th annual StepALIVE! Walkathon to benefit ALIVE!, Sunday, October 19. Together, we can take a step towards ending food and housing insecurity in Alexandria. Register to walk or support Team Fairlington by donating online today! To register to walk or donate, search for team “FUMC-Kathy Richards Flock.”

All Saints Sunday
On Sunday, November 2 at 11:00 AM, we will gather for a special All Saints Sunday service at Fairlington United Methodist Church. During worship, candles will be lit in memory of members, family, and friends who have passed in the past year. You are invited to add the names of your loved ones to be remembered—these names will be read aloud in thanksgiving as we lift them to God in prayer. Communion will be celebrated, and the combined choirs of Westminster Presbyterian Church and Fairlington UMC will present Lux Aeterna (Light Eternal) by Morten Lauridsen.

Participate in FUMC's Food Mission w/ALIVE!: Monthly, 3rd Wednesdays from 4-6:30 PM.

Our congregation will be picking up and delivering gently used donated furniture with ALIVE! every-other month. It's a ministry that changes lives. Each piece of furniture delivered represents more than just comfort—it offers dignity, stability, and hope to families who need it most. We need a team of 4-5 people to help.
