FEATURED WORKSHOP
EVERYONE HAS A STORY. AND IN THE TELLING, WE FIND HEALING.
Join us this September for a powerful 3-week journey where we explore how God meets us in our stories—our pain, our past, and our hopes for the future. Based on the format of The Moth, this large group event will help your own story come alive. Through teaching, testimony, and guided reflection, Season of Healing Through Storytelling invites you to discover how sharing your story can be a pathway to healing—for you and for others.

MEMORIAL SERVICES
Read more
The process of planning a memorial service for a loved one can be an emotional and confusing time. At Fairfax Church we want to help and guide you in the planning of a service that will be both a meaningful tribute for your loved one, and a comfort to family and friends.
A well thought-out service is not only a final goodbye, but also the start of a healing process for those who will attend. We pray that the journey through grief and the process of healing and reconciliation will bring renewed faith in Jesus Christ.
If you need to start the planning process, have any questions, or if you would like any further information, please feel free to contact care@fairfax.cc.
