Fairfax Bible Study MeetUp (FBSM) This Saturday - Come Join Us!
Hello Everybody!
Join us this Saturday at 11 AM at the Fairfax Wegmans as we continue our Bible study and discussions.
Recently, we've been studying the "types" (patterns or pictures) of Jesus in the Old Testament in chronological order starting with creation. We will go all the way to David as a type of Jesus the King.
As anyone who's attended before knows, we have open discussions. Our goal is always to grow in our love, knowledge, and relationship with Jesus and to have fellowship.
We invite the presence of the Holy Spirit as we meet together and we've had some great conversations and revelations. Please join us as we continue our Bible study and prayers.
God bless you all,
Mihail

This is not a seminar or a motivational event.
It’s a hands-on experience focused on real decisions, real properties, and real next steps.
**What You’ll Learn & Do**
**Day 1 — Find & Fund**
* Define your ZONE and build a personal buy box
* Learn where real deals actually come from
* Understand how real estate deals are funded, including options that don’t require your own money
* Review real deal structures, numbers, and examples
**Day 2 — Fix & Profit (In the Field)**
* Walk active and completed renovation projects in the field
* Learn what actually adds value in a renovation—and what wastes money
* Evaluate rehab costs and scopes on site
* Make smarter flip vs hold decisions using real properties
You’ll also leave with a clear 90-day action plan and participate in 4 weeks of weekly virtual accountability sessions to help you follow through after the weekend.
**Who This Is For**
* People working a 9–5 who want to build wealth through real estate
* Professionals and entrepreneurs looking for an additional income stream
* New or early-stage investors who want a clear starting point
* Agents who want to move beyond transactions and into investing
**Meet Your Mentors**
This bootcamp is led by **Rob Chevez and Mark Beckett,** experienced real estate operators who have built, funded, and executed real deals in real markets.
**Rob Chevez**, Founder and CEO of GRID Capital Partners, has led and participated in over **$2B in real estate transactions** and built a national investor ecosystem focused on turning earned income into long-term wealth. He brings a systems-first, execution-driven approach to launching and scaling investment businesses.
**Mark Beckett** brings **25+ years of hands-on experience** across real estate development, investing, and construction. His background spans acquisitions, land development, and renovations throughout the Mid-Atlantic, with deep expertise in what actually works—and what doesn’t—on site.
Together, Rob and Mark teach from active experience, not theory—so what you learn is grounded in real decisions, real numbers, and real execution.
**The GRID Guarantee**
If you buy, sell, or invest in a deal with us within 12 months, your full tuition is credited back.

Profs & Pints Northern Virginia: A Practical Guide to Social Change
[Profs and Pints Northern Virginia](https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc) presents: **“A Practical Guide to Social Change,”** a research-based look at how communities bring about reform and progress, with Marissa Robinson, founder of Real Health Impact LLC and an adjunct professor at George Washington University who teaches courses focused on public health leadership and social change.
[Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Available at [https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-social-change](https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-social-change) .]
Systems built on inequality rarely transform without deliberate pressure from the people most committed to justice, because progress takes coordination, conviction and willingness to change what has always been accepted. Real change starts when people choose to move together.
Learn what research and experience say about how to make real social progress with Dr. Marissa Robinson, a public health practitioner who previously worked in federal agencies coordinating global and national public health initiatives focused on infectious diseases, HIV, and health equity.
Among the key questions she’ll tackle: How do communities overcome barriers to create real change? When should evidence guide decisions and when does context matter more?
She’ll discuss established frameworks for moving from intention to measurable progress and talk about the importance of building coalitions that actually work and of making decisions grounded in real data. You’ll learn about the importance of testing ideas on a small scale before going big, as well as how to use rapid feedback loops and continuous improvement cycles to refine approaches and scale what truly works.
Dr. Robinson will share stories of ordinary people and communities who refused to accept the status quo and pushed through real barriers to achieve breakthrough results. She’ll talk about practical strategies, usable frameworks, and evidence-based examples that people can apply immediately in their own communities and organizations to support change that lasts.
If you have dreamed about bringing about progress in your world, this talk will give you the clarity, direction, and confidence it takes to turn such dreams into reality. ( Door: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. The talk starts 30 minutes later.)

ASL Sunday Silent Social at Fairfax's Wegmans
Whether you're Deaf, HoH, an interpreter, an ASL student, or just want to learn or practice American Sign Language (ASL), we welcome all levels of signers to come join us for an evening of ASL socializing and practice.
This event occurs on the first and third Sundays of every month, in the heart of Fairfax County at the Fairfax Wegman's (corner of Route 29 and Monument Drive). We can be found on the upper level, typically near the stairs. We generally start around 7 pm.
ASL beginners are welcome, but you should know the ASL alphabet and some basic signs - this is not an ASL class, but the more experienced signers are generally happy to help beginners learn and improve. There is no better way to develop your signing skills than by joining the conversation with other signers. There is a place for everyone to join, learn and practice. Regardless, we are always welcoming so don’t be discouraged to attend; this is very informal and new folks are always welcome.
Note, some attendees arrive early and grab some of Wegman’s food for dinner, so you can combine a shopping trip with the ASL practice.

Driving is the best option. There is plenty of free on-site parking. Otherwise, we are a 22 minute bus from the Vienna Metro Station.
