You are urged to pray during your own quiet times, in your small groups and in joining others on the specific day designated as the National Day of Prayer on May 1. On that day the MPC sanctuary will be open and available for you to ‘drop in’ for prayer from 8am-8:30pm. Prayer guides for the National Day of Prayer are available at the Information Center.

May 4 - Kingdom Kids Volunteer Appreciation Festival
McLean Presbyterian Church (MPC) is so blessed to have so many volunteers in all the various ministries! On Sunday May 4th, Kingdom Kids, the children’s ministry at MPC, would like to thank all of our volunteers by dedicating a family festival to them! The festival will begin after the second service ends and will run until 4pm in the Grand Foyer and Courtyard area. The Lutsko family has graciously offered to bring two Moonbounces for the day, so children can rambunctiously jump for hours on end! And at 2pm the very funny and very talented ventriloquist Dennis Lee will put on a show for all of MPC to enjoy!! Please bring a picnic basket for you and your family (drinks will be provided) and be prepared to have a blast!  If you have any questions please contact Billy Robinson at (703)394-0575 or billy@mcleanpres.org.
