Christian Singles 40's-50's

**Coffee. A Sunday morning. A table of people who get it.** **NoVA Single Parents Village is a new group for single parents in Northern Virginia who want actual community — not advice, not a support group, not a dating app in disguise. Just people navigating the same messy, meaningful reality who could use a few more faces that understand it.** **The first meetup is at Caboose Brewing in Mosaic District. No agenda. No icebreaker games. Show up, grab a drink, and talk to people who know what it’s like to be doing this largely on their own.**

Calling precious amazing single women without children. Is that you? Then this is for you! Do you find Mother's Day a little tricky? Do you find the fact that churches sometimes prioritize families over singles occasionally disappointing? Furthermore, in the "importance" game, do you find that single women with children are sometimes viewed a little more highly than single women without children, and the end result is that it can (or has been) even a smidge painful or tricky at times? If you fit this category, or are any single woman currently without biological children, then this is your moment! You have come to the right place! A few of the men from the SingleFaith community in partnership with Grace Baptist Church want to celebrate and YOU! You deserve it! Don’t worry, we’re not here to feel sorry for each other, we’re here to honor the amazing YOU! You are soooo beautiful and soooo important and soooo valuable and sooo made in the image of God! Even now, we are prayerfully and thoughtfully preparing a free luncheon for up to 20 honored guests! There will be tasty food and other surprises to appropriately communicate just how loved and valuable you are! To steal a line from Beauty and the Beast.. **Be our guest,** **Be our guest** **Put our service to the test** **Tie your napkin 'round your neck** **And we provide the rest!** **You can also text me with a question** **Andy at 804-986-3164**

**Welcome to our church in Greenbelt, MD** where we believe that everyone is made in God’s image, and that no one should be ignored or marginalized. We are a safe space for everyone who is looking for unconditional love and acceptance in Jesus Christ our Lord. We invite you to join us for our next service on **Sunday**, at 10:40 AM. We hope to see you there! 🙏🌟

**Real connection with fellow Catholics who are eager to grow in Faith and friendship!** This 3 year--- 45min deep dive into the Catholic faith is a great way to spend your Sunday rest day. When you are ready to dig deeper and live the faith more fully this is an optimal opportunity. Talk yourself into this! You may start whenever and can come as often or as little as you desire. Coffee is served w/ small donation. It is taught by the priest and/or OCIA director at St Louis Parish who are ALL fabulous- faithful educators filled with theologically inspired knowledge. You can ask questions at the end, which I love. It is just a wonderful experience to grow. Afterwards if you wish, you can also find your way over to the Little Way Cafe Coffee shop across the parking lot to stay for more community time or read some of the excellent books that line the shelves throughout. If you are new to the community of Alexandria and want to meet like minded folks or a veteran of it, this is a special and unique opportunity and did I mention it is free? :) Hard to believe! Please join me every Sunday at 945 am.

Let's get together to play some competitive coed doubles volleyball. **COST**: FREE **Court Type**: Outdoor grass **Minimum Skill Requirements**: Solid BB (click [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PojSi4qdlRsv1msCHhvpQ43iDc4FfzQwpWCc3kafVMY/mobilebasic) for details) Attention: 1.

[Good doubles partner](https://docs.google.com/document/d/14weEw-P52XKx0P8K2l-ZOFtYU61wmfdkSkopbG5avro/) and those who can bring a net and ball, may get priority over others on the waitlist. 2. Since skill levels are **self-reported**, some attendees may not meet the expected level in reality, so we encourage you to choose a partner you can enjoy the game with, and since this is a **competitive** event, it is okay if you make a strong team and win all the games. 3.
