He is a Psychiatrist who worked with soldiers on telehealth and was profoundly affected by the experience. He asked the men and women to tell them what they did in their service\, “how did you lose your leg”\, which was a profoundly different approach than to just give them a prescription.\n\nHe tells the stories and what he learned about how we all can be different in our approach to veterans. Saying\, “thank you for your service” is not enough.  I would love for you to personally join us this season so you will get a first-hand view of the community that we are gathering around these literary events.\n\nSee Flyer to Register.

Lee\, author of the memoir We Mend with Gold\, for a free presentation\, “Faith Resurrected: An Immigrant Daughter’s Reckoning with American Christianity.” \nThe in-person event will take place from 6:30 to 8 PM at the National Presbyterian Church\, 4101 Nebraska Avenue\, Washington\, DC 20016. Free parking is available in the church lot. \nKristin T. Lee is a writer whose work has appeared in Christianity Today and Sojourners\, and she is also a primary care physician serving Boston’s Chinatown community. \nIn We Mend with Gold\, Lee—a daughter of the Asian American church— wrestles with faith\, exile\, and belonging. Being a Christian has nothing to do with being Chinese American—that’s what Lee learned as a child. This opened a fissure between her identity and what she was told to believe. In the book she asks: What if we can bridge the divide? \nDrawing on Black\, Asian\, and other minoritized theologians\, Lee separates the theology of empire from what Jesus preached and lived. Writing of the fractures in our families\, churches\, and the world\, Lee relies on the Japanese art of kintsugi to describe the resplendence of a faith that repairs but doesn’t paper over. And she offers pieces of the Asian American experience—such as liminality\, displacement\, and exile—that attend to the breaking and the mending\, the wounding and the healing. How might marginality bring us closer to God and others? What do we lose when we “make it”? And when we expand our notion of who belongs to our family\, what do we gain? \n  URL:https://thepresbytery.org/event/faith-resurrected-an-immigrant-daughters-reckoning-with-american-christianity/ LOCATION:National Presbyterian Church\, 4101 Nebraska Ave NW\,\, Washington\, DC\, 20016\, United States CATEGORIES:Around the Presbytery ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thepresbytery.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/RI-KristinLee-Online_FINAL.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261116T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261116T200000 DTSTAMP:20261026T200015Z CREATED:20251027T150015Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261026T200015Z UID:931-1794855600-1794859200@thepresbytery.org SUMMARY:Action Item Dialogue DESCRIPTION:Action Item Dialogue  \nAn Action Item Dialogue is an opportunity for discussion around an action item at the upcoming presbytery meeting. \nTOPIC: 2027 Operating and Mission Budgets \nMonday\, November 16\, 2027 at 7:00 PM via Zoom \nRegister below and you’ll receive the Zoom link to the Action Item Dialogue \n  \n  \n\n \n \n Action Item Dialogue - November 16\, 2026\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n URLThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name*\n \n \n First Name\n \n \n \n \n Last Name\n \n \n \n Email*\n \n Church/Organization*Choose one...OtherAdelphiAldieArlingtonAshburnBealetonBerwynBethesdaBoydsBradley HillsBrambletonBrentsvilleBurkeBush HillCalvaryCapitol HillCatoctinChesterbrook TaiwaneseChevy ChaseChrist Presbyterian FairfaxChrist the KingChristian CommunityChurch of the CovenantClarendonCliftonColesvilleCovenantDarnestownEastminsterEbenezerEmmanuel Indonesian PresbyterianFairfaxFairlingtonFaithFalls ChurchFifteenth StreetFirst AnnandaleFirst ArlingtonFirst United Dale CityFurnace MountainGaithersburgGarden MemorialGenevaGeorgetownGood SamaritanGrace LanhamGrace SpringfieldGreenwichHeritageHermonHopeIdylwoodImmanuelJohn CalvinKirkwoodKnoxKorean of RockvilleLaurelLeesburgLewinsvilleLitchfieldLittle FallsManassasMizoMount VernonNationalNew HopeNew York AvenueNortheasternNorthern Virginia KoreanNorthminsterOaklandsOld Presbyterian Meeting HousePatuxentPilgrimsPoolesvillePotomacPrince George's CommunityProvidenceRedeemerRiversideRock (The)RockvilleRockville United ChurchSaint MarkSargent MemorialSilver SpringSixthSouthminsterSt. AndrewSt. MatthewTaiwanese of WashingtonTakoma ParkTrinity\, ArlingtonTrinity\, HerndonUnited KoreanUnited Christian Parish of RestonUnited Parish of BowieViennaWarner MemorialWesternWestminster\, AlexandriaWestminster\, DCWheatonStatus*MinisterCRECertified EducatorElder CommissionerElder\, Non-votingOtherIf "Other\," welcome and please tell us who you are\n Submit URL:https://thepresbytery.org/event/action-item-dialogue/ LOCATION:https://thepresbytery.org/event/action-item-dialogue/ CATEGORIES:NCP ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://thepresbytery.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/AID_Nov-2026.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20261120 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20261123 DTSTAMP:20260813T165331Z CREATED:20250901T165707Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260813T165331Z UID:275-1795132800-1795391999@thepresbytery.org SUMMARY:Keep Awake 2026 DESCRIPTION:Keep Awake 2026\nNovember 20-22\, 2026\nMassanetta Springs \nA pay-what-you’re-able conference for high school students and their leaders\, centered on worship\, leadership development\, and small group discussion inspired by PC(USA)’s Matthew 25 vision. \nFor more details\, visit the Massanetta Springs website.

Buildings sit underutilized while communities long for places of belonging. Financial models built for another era are becoming increasingly fragile. Programs that once drew people no longer connect in the same ways.  \nMany congregations recognize the need for change. Far fewer know how to get there.  \nLaunching a missional business or social enterprise isn’t primarily a question of strategy. It’s a question of imagination\, leadership\, and culture. Before a congregation can create something new\, it must learn to see differently\, steward differently\, and relate to its neighbors differently.  \nThat kind of transformation doesn’t magically happen during a brainstorming session. It requires leadership that can disrupt familiar patterns without destroying trust\, congregations willing to trust God into the possibilities\, and perseverance to move faithfully through uncertainty while bringing others along.  \nThat’s the conversation for this year’s Missional Entrepreneurship Immersion.  \nFor more information\, including what to expect and leaders/panelists\, click HERE.
