Welcome to Little River
United Church of Christ
Little River United Church of Christ (Annandale, Virginia) is a community of followers of Jesus of Nazareth. We seek to embody the Spirit of God as set forth in the life, teachings, death, and living presence of Jesus the Christ. Our purpose is twofold: to seek our own and others’ wholeness by experiencing and expressing divine love, and to act prophetically to establish a just way of life. We gather in person and online for: prayer and reflection in worship, enriching music, building relationships, learning, and social justice activities for all ages. We are doubters and seekers, sinners and saints doing our best to create a beloved community with those in the D.C. area and beyond.
