Welcoming | Diverse | Progressive On February 23, 1969, the Reverend Embry Rucker, the parish’s first rector, celebrated Holy Communion with 42 people in a storefront building at Lake Anne Village Center.
Parishioners came from diverse backgrounds, united by their commitment to social action. The congregation supported innovative ministry and outreach to the new community of Reston, which was only five years old when the church was founded. Through the Common Ground Foundation and Coffee House in Lake Anne, we were instrumental in starting a number of needed programs in the community including the Common Ground Child Care Center, Reston Interfaith, the Reston Internal Bus System (RIBS bus) and the Greater Reston Arts Center. The Common Ground Coffee House was an important center of community life for many years and a point of contact for people who needed help. In the early days of Reston, the Diocese of Virginia had the foresight to purchase a plot of land on a hill overlooking Baron Cameron Drive and Reston Parkway. The church building that now sits on this site was dedicated in 1989 and expanded in 1995 to its current 23,000 square feet. Five rectors followed Embry Rucker: Jim Miles, Paula Woods (the first woman rector in the Diocese of Virginia), John Hatcher, Jim Papil, John Hall, and our current interim Rector John Stonesifer. Each rector made his/her mark on the parish throughout its forty-year history. Today, we worship in a beautiful contemporary church that offers a broad spectrum of inreach, outreach, educational and fellowship programs. Under the spiritual guidance of interim Rector John Stonesifer, and Associate Rector Laura Cochran, St. Anne’s has grown to some 1000 active members. The church building is in constant use by parishioners, other religious groups and neighborhood organizations as a center for worship, community service, education and social events. St. Anne’s remains faithful to involvement in the greater Reston community, to welcoming all to our church family, and to being a progressive congregation of seekers who rely on scripture, tradition and reason to discern God’s will.
Mission: As the people of St. Anne’s, we believe that we are called into a special relationship with God, with each other, and with all of God’s children in our own community and throughout the world. We work to respond to God’s call wherever it may lead us. We are actively engaged in our community, taking our sense of mission from the needs and hopes of those whom God has given us as friends and neighbors. In faithful and joyous response to that call, we seek: In our PARISH LIFE together: • To assume responsibility for one another as fellow members of our family of faith; • To minister to all of God’s people by embracing the rich diversity of our congregation, and to recognize and celebrate the insights and gifts brought to our common life by children, youth, and adults and by those who are married, single, and in committed relationships, as well as by persons of different races, ethnicities, and sexual orientation; and • To continue to find ways to express our gratitude for God’s gifts to us and our willingness to share those gifts. In our WORSHIP: • To be a Eucharistic-centered parish that is open to exploring and celebrating the rich liturgical tradition of the Church as reflected in the Book of Common Prayer; • To recognize and support the vital ministry of the laity in our liturgical practices and to encourage maximum participation of lay ministers and of the congregation as a whole in our worship experience; • To encourage and support individual parishioners in their own paths of spiritual development, recognizing that there are many paths to God; and • To recognize and support the important role of music in our worship service and to encourage maximum congregational participation in this form of ministry. In our EDUCATION PROGRAMS: • To recognize that growth in the Christian faith is a lifelong process and that it is a special responsibility of our parish to assist and nurture parishioners of all conditions and at all stages of life through education programs, retreats, and other opportunities for spiritual growth; • To provide a place where parishioners can safely raise honest questions and explore new ideas and where there is a genuine openness to a multiplicity of faith understandings, spiritual experiences, and theological viewpoints; and • To recognize that the ultimate truth of God is beyond our knowing and that we must, therefore, live in a creative tension between our own experience and understanding of God’s love and our inability to get our minds around God through any particular theological doctrine or teaching. In our OUTREACH to others: • To identify and make available to our parishioners, opportunities to become personally involved in hands-on projects of ministry to others; • To focus our outreach effort primarily on needs that are not currently being met by others and among those for whom our ministry can make a significant difference; • To recognize that our call to ministry extends beyond our local community and to seek opportunities for active involvement by our parishioners in the work of the Church throughout our own country and throughout the world; and • To share the challenge of the Gospel with others through prayer and action.

Where in the USA is Cecilia Ohanian?
Cecilia Ohanian was inspired by her St. Anne’s Mission Trip to Appalachia to take a gap year serving our community through AmeriCorps. This is her latest update from North Carolina and on her way to New Jersey:
I am currently in Charlotte, North Carolina, serving on a new project with Habitat for Humanity! Prior to arriving, I completed a mandatory shelter-in-place in Vinton, Iowa, to ensure myself and other AmeriCorps members were of a cleared status pertaining to COVID. During this time, I met my new team and together we learned about our upcoming assignment with Habitat for Humanity. The project focuses on the increased demand for affordable housing in the Charlotte region. My team and I have been able to help aid in this crisis by working on a construction site of a new house for a Habitat partner family.
While walking through the city as a mere visitor I have been lucky to witness the beauty this area offers, from sky-high buildings and murals to the culture created by the community here. However, I can not turn a blind eye to the struggle that many here still face-having a stable roof over one's head. Unfortunately, the Charlotte region faces a tremendous amount of social issues such as gentrification, prolonged effects of red-lining, and income/wage inequality. There is such a significant need for affordable housing here and it is estimated the area needs between 24,000 to 34,000 more units to keep up with demands. Though my service does provide strength and self-reliance to people within this community, there is still equally a need for others to help in the efforts. I have found my eyes opened again in a short time by the harsh realities that can easily be hidden to a blind eye. I am very grateful to be able to make a positive impact in these families lives and I hope that this leaves you wanting to do the same.
Even though my time in NC has not been long, my team and I have already been called to another project. We are deploying through an executive order to New Jersey to support COVID vaccination clinics. I think this is equally an important opportunity to help people, though I am sad to leave my Habitat family. The constant change has been rewarding for me and I feel this new adventure will be just that.
