We Believe Faith Should Bless Our Neighbors
The Episcopal Church of the Resurrection in West Alexandria is deeply committed to worship that is reverent, relationships that are genuine, and service that is tangible.
Resurrection is a place where you are known by name, welcomed with warmth, and invited into a life of prayer, community, and meaningful action.
Our faith does not remain inside our walls. From partnering in the creation of The Spire, an affordable housing community built on our property, to supporting outreach ministries throughout Alexandria, we believe the hope of resurrection becomes real when it blesses our neighbors.
Here, faith is visible in the neighborhood.
Our Mission

Rooted in Scripture and shaped by prayer and sacrament, we seek to embody the love, justice, and compassion of Jesus Christ — within our congregation and throughout our neighborhood.
