Mercy Ministry
Our deacons have a Biblical mandate (Acts 6) to address needs within the Body of Christ, so we have a Deacons’ Fund offering each month to provide for the material needs of our own congregation, and to show the love of Christ to people in our community. The deacons administer these funds, and work together with the men and women of the Mercy Committee to counsel, encourage, and pray for those in need.
Serve with us around the world.
Engagement in Missions is an integral part of the life and ministry of Alexandria Presbyterian Church. Within the first year of APC’s founding, the congregation began supporting a missionary family serving abroad. That commitment to support those in the mission field has deepened over the years through steady financial support, regular communication and prayer.
Use your gifts to serve on our music ministry teams.
At APC, we have members from a wide range of backgrounds, so we offer a blended style of worship that incorporates contemporary worship songs, traditional hymns and music from other traditions.

Urgent Needs
Urgent Nursery Volunteers
Nursery volunteers. Thanks to all who are faithfully volunteering for the nursery! This is a meaningful way for the entire APC body to invest in raising our children for the Lord. We need additional volunteers. Would you prayerfully consider serving in this ministry? Volunteers serve 2 times per quarter.
Contact: Erin Furgerson, Director of Children’s Ministries, at [email protected].
Urgent Coffee Team
The coffee team is looking for volunteers. Helping with coffee is a great way to serve the church family and help welcome everyone to the fellowship time between the services. No experience is required.
Contact Andrea Romyn, Hospitality Coordinator, at [email protected].
Outreach
Transportation Ministry
We are looking for volunteers who are willing to use their personal vehicle to transport others as needed. Volunteers must be Congregational Care & Safety certified. The majority of the need has been to help bring seniors to church and back on Sunday mornings. Occasionally, there are other needs such as bringing people to special evening church services (such as around Thanksgiving, Christmas or Easter) or to help get someone to an appointment. There is a running calendar showing the ongoing needs and which requirements are still open for volunteers. For specific questions and to sign up, please check with APC’s transportation coordinator, Bill Ward, Contact Deacon Bill Ward at b[email protected]

Adult Choir
The choir rehearses on Wednesday evenings and sings in Sunday services, predominantly at 9am. Their purpose is to magnify God’s greatness by leading gospel-motivated, Spirit-reliant congregational singing, and by crafting rich, gospel-proclaiming music for the church’s reflection and meditation. Please consider lending your heart and your voice to serve your church family! Having the ability to read musical scores is helpful but not required.

Contact Usher Coordinator Marc Smith at [email protected].
Projection Team
By managing the projection of lyrics and scripture on our video screens, projection volunteers keep everyone aware of what’s happening in each service, help to facilitate the leadership of APC’s pastors and musicians, and literally place the words of the gospel in view of God’s people each week. You do not have to be savvy with technology or media design to serve in this capacity.
