ACTS: Active Compassion to Saints

ACTS (Active Compassion To Saints) Ministry seeks to provide worship and fellowship for Christians, as well as share the gospel to those who do not know Jesus at local nursing homes.

Groups of volunteers of all ages visit local nursing homes to spend time with residents singing, praying, reading Scripture, and hearing a message of God’s grace.

During COVID-19, the ACTS ministry was very active, distributing hundreds of Bibles, DVD’s of music and sermons, notes of encouragement, and letters from community groups. In locations where gathering restrictions have loosened, ACTS has been able to deliver worship and homilies of the gospel in person.

ACTS currently serves at Arleigh Burke Pavilion and Regency Care Center. If interested in knowing more, please contact the McLean Pres office: 703.821.0800.
