First Presbyterian Church considers itself to be "an internationally welcoming church and mission center" whose mission is to "joyfully and humbly worship, love, and obey God, nurture the Spiritual Gifts of God's people and serve others in the name of Jesus Christ." Founded in 1956, members congregated in the auditorium of Annandale High School before the church was built on Newcastle Drive.
The church has several active ministries, including its Parenting Partnership program with the Social Service Department of Fairfax County. There are additional resources available for people of all ages for all types of circumstances whether it be personal or financial.
The church welcomes all newcomers and invites the community to join them on Sunday mornings for worship. First Presbyterian encourages everyone to celebrate God's love and all his Word to transform their lives.
