Ways to Serve in Our Church
Community Partners
REV: Vehicle Repair
REV’s mission is to Restore and Empower people through Vehicle repairs.
We know the freedom, safety, and agency having a working vehicle provides. For our neighbors who find themselves living on the margin, even basic automotive repairs can be cost prohibitive – and the difference between safe shelter and necessary provision.
REV’s goal is to help ensure a vehicle is able to pass basic safety and emissions inspections.t this by clicking on it. Learn more about Rev Ministry HERE!
Food for Others
Vine’s Community Partner is an important part of Northern Virginia’s safety net for those needing food when an emergency strikes and for the growing number of working poor who need to supplement their inadequate food supplies. A collection bin in the Worship Center is available for your donation of shelf stable foods or reusable bags any time.

Second Story
Second Story provides safe havens and opportunities to grow and thrive to youth experiencing homelessness and youth and families in crisis. A bin in the Worship Center collects individually wrapped snacks, hygiene items, and baby laundry detergent.

Stenwood Elementary School
Stenwood Elementary serves over 600 students – making space for not only education – but friendship, mentorship, special programs, activities, and more. More than 10% of their students receive free or reduced meals and services. The Vine supports special projects, teacher encouragement, and student support throughout the year. A bin in the Worship Center collects $5 Starbucks cards (used for teacher encouragement), and other special collections throughout the year.
Equal Exchange & UMCOR
The Vine supports the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) Coffee Project and Equal Exchange in supporting small farmers around the world. These farmers are paid above market prices for their crops, they are able to make investments in community projects, educational programs, and technical trainings. Donate to the cause at the jar on Vine’s coffee bar!

Project B-Green
Project B-Green collects in-kind donations on behalf of local charity partners and monetizes them to support their valuable missions. Your donations are tax-deductible and can be dropped off at the bin in our parking lot.
Rise Against Hunger
Rise Against Hunger is growing a global movement to end hunger through nutrition, education and economic empowerment. Each fall, Vine supports the work of Rise Against Hunger with a packing event. Join us!
