Advent Lutheran Church (congregation site)
AI Summary
Advent’s bright, fully accessible, mortgage‑free building (completed 2011) sits on a campus that includes a stone Chartres‑pattern labyrinth (installed 2007, entrance off the driveway) for meditation and a Little Free Library (charter #101539; installed 2020) stocked with spiritual and inspirational titles. Congregational life is active and welcoming, with monthly book club meetings, men’s and women’s Bible studies that meet every other Sunday after fellowship, multiple small groups, and a midweek “Dinner Church” on Wednesdays—refreshments and socializing follow Sunday worship in the fellowship hall. The congregation maintains a strong online presence with Facebook livestreams (and YouTube archives), a Pastor’s Blog, an online Prayer Request form, and secure member tools (Breeze) plus multiple giving options including QR‑linked gifts. Founded in 1951 with a long history of civil‑rights and refugee ministry, Advent was honored with Arlington’s James B. Hunter Award in 2021; the pastor is Rev. Alex Stall Jr., and the office (Nancy Cox Jairrels) is open Tue–Thu, 11:00 AM–3:00 PM.
