Family Fellowship Week

This year’s Family Week will be hosted by Pastor Chad Estep and the Valley Baptist Church in Edinburg, VA. Family Week will begin with registration at 4:30 p.m. on Monday evening, followed by a relaxed meal in the outdoor pavilion of the church. Come in your modest travel clothes and enjoy the church’s activity fields and facilities! A relaxed evening service will immediately follow. We ask that missionaries plan to attend all services of the week, starting with Monday evening and ending Thursday evening. Missionaries will be housed at the Holiday Inn Express in Woodstock, VA, which is approximately 10 minutes from the church. Please watch your email for more details as the week approaches.
