## **Mid-Week Service: Renew Your Spirit** Join us every **Wednesday evening at 6:15 PM** for our Mid-Week Service, a dedicated time to pause, pray, and recharge in the middle of a busy week. Held in an intimate and welcoming setting, this service is designed to help you reconnect with God and find peace through His Word. ### **What to Expect** * **Deep Biblical Teaching:** We move beyond the surface, engaging in verse-by-verse studies of Scripture—such as our current journey through the **Book of Acts**—to gain practical wisdom for daily life. * **Community Prayer:** We believe in the power of collective intercession. Each week, we lift up the needs of our families, our city, and the world. * **Heartfelt Worship:** A time of singing and reflection to center our hearts on the presence of the Holy Spirit. * **Authentic Fellowship:** Connect with a supportive community of believers who are walking the same path of faith. Whether you are looking for a deeper understanding of theology or simply a quiet place to sit at the feet of Jesus, our mid-week gathering offers the spiritual nourishment you need to finish your week with strength and purpose. *** > *"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have."* — **1 Peter 3:15**

**The 3% Advantage** **Why Only a Few Leaders Truly Stand Out — and How to Become One of Them** **FREE 1\-hour interactive webinar \| Leadership\, Positioning & Growth** \*\*\* **Join Dr Edward Klinger and learn why:** Most capable professionals and business leaders never truly stand out. Not because they lack talent, experience, or ambition — but because they operate without a clear system for differentiation. In crowded markets, competence is no longer enough. The real challenge is clarity. This session is for people who are tired of blending in — and want to understand what the top 3% do differently. Join Dr Edward Klinger for a practical, insight-driven webinar that explores why only a small minority of leaders consistently stand out, attract opportunity, and command attention — and what it actually takes to join them. \*\*\* **What you’ll learn** * Why most professionals and businesses become indistinguishable * The hidden cost of “professional sameness” * The 3 concrete actions you can take immediately to begin standing out * How clarity, consistency, and leadership decisions create long-term advantage * Why tactics alone don’t work without an underlying system This is not a motivational talk. And it’s not a marketing hack session. It’s about positioning, leadership clarity, and intentional growth. \*\*\* **Who this is for** * Business owners and founders * Executives and senior leaders * Consultants, coaches, and professional service providers * Anyone who feels capable but under-recognised * Leaders who want to stop reacting and start designing their direction If you know you’re good at what you do — but struggle to articulate it clearly, consistently, or confidently — this session will be highly relevant. \*\*\* You’ll leave with: * Clear insight into why standing out is so rare * Practical actions you can apply immediately * A deeper understanding of the system behind sustained differentiation \*\*\* Free to attend. Limited spaces. Stop blending in. Start operating with intent — like the 3% *Please note : The zoom link allows you to register and then the workshop zoom link is emailed to you. You can register in advance of the event.* The Adapt and Thrive Events Group wholeheartedly supports the policies and principles of Meetup. We make no guarantees and we do not offer financial services or assurances. All our Meetup Events are FREE to attend.

Capoeira (capo-way-ra) is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that is unlike any other martial art. Capoeira incorporates flowing movements with kicks, dodges, and some acrobatics. It is often mistaken for a dance for those reasons. Since it’s origins in the 17th century, it has evolved from a secret fighting practice into an art emphasizing self-expression and community celebration. It is great for the body and mind! In addition to gaining strength and flexibility in class, students learn about Brazilian culture, history, and language (Portuguese). On November 26, 2014 capoeira was granted a special protected status as "intangible cultural heritage” by UNESCO. The session is offered InStudio only. **Sign up at www.piesfitnessyoga.com required at least two hours before class begins.** The address is 1322 Prince St Alexandria, VA 22314. Our entrance is located on the side of the building, parallel to West St. **Street parking is available and additional parking is located at Shiloh Baptist church, spaces 36,37,38,39.** The church is located across the street from the studio, on the corner of Duke St. and West St.
