As you come into the lobby area\, to the right will be café seating and access to the outdoor amphitheater area. To the left will be sanctuary entrances. Down the length of the lobby to the left\, you’ll find a photo backdrop for photos after the service. You’ll also find table with Chick-fil-A food tickets for those who pre-ordered lunch. \nWe encourage you to move quickly to find a seat! There will be lots of time for fellowship after the service in the picnic area. You’ll want to be early for a special countdown video that will start at 9:50 a.m. \nPlease note that absolutely no food or drink is allowed in their sanctuary. There will be a table at each sanctuary entrance to leave water bottles\, etc. We will provide labels and markers to write your name on your item in order to retrieve after the service. \nExiting the Campus: If you are not staying after for the picnic\, please exit only via Battlefield Pkwy. If you parked in the overflow lot\, you may exit via Sycolin. \nPicnic & Fellowship Afterwards: Our service will be followed by a picnic from 12:00-3:00 p.m. on the lawn\, rain or shine. In the picnic area\, there will be a large tent with tables that accommodates 900 people\, and plenty of outdoors space. There will be designated areas in the tent to say hello to Mike and Kay and meet up with other alumni from the 70s and 80s. \nRestrooms: Restrooms are available at the picnic area\, but we recommend using the inside bathrooms as you depart the main building since there are fewer outside. \nChick-fil-A Preorders: If you pre-ordered Chick-fil-A\, there will be tables in the lobby for you to pick up your food tickets. Make sure before you exit the main building\, you pick up your food ticket from the tables in the main lobby. Take your tickets to the food pickup area at the fire pit in the picnic area. In case of rain\, the food pickup area will be the café indoors. We will have lots of bottled water near the food pickup. If you did not pre-order CfA\, lunch is BYO! \nLivestream Info: If you are out of town and/or unable to attend\, the service will be livestreamed at live.restonbible.org and our YouTube channel.

This will provide additional time for those who traveled for the 50th to connect with other alumni and local friends and enjoy their fellowship. \nIglesia Hispana will meet during their regular service time at 1:00pm on May 18. \n\nPlease mark your calendar and plan to join us for a very special celebration service on Saturday\, May 17\, 2025\, to commemorate 50 years of God’s faithfulness at Reston Bible Church.\nIt all began with a simple phone call and a step into the unknown. In the spring of 1974\, a businessman contacted Florida Bible College\, hoping to attract a graduate to Northern Virginia to plant a Bible-believing church near his family in Reston. Weeks later\, newlyweds Mike and Kay Minter left Florida for Reston\, and in March of 1975\, Reston Bible Church held its very first worship service in the Reston Sheraton Hotel. Who could guess what God would do in the years to come? \nNow\, as we approach 50 years of knowing Jesus Christ and making Him known\, Reston Bible Church stands as a testimony to God’s enduring faithfulness\, and we want to celebrate His goodness with you! After five decades of ministry\, the Lord has woven thousands of people into the fabric and history of RBC. Whether you attended for a year or for decades\, whether you simply showed up on Sundays or you poured your life into the ministries of this church\, whether your time with us was sweet\, bitter\, or somewhere in between\, your participation\, your service\, your giving\, your presence and your time with us mattered—and still matters\, because it is part of 50 years of kingdom work that God has done and continues to do here at RBC. \nTo stay informed on service and event details\, including RSVPs and other activities surrounding our Jubilee Celebration\, please click the button below to be added to our email update list.

I will ponder all Your work\, and meditate on Your mighty deeds. Your way\, O God\, is holy. What god is great like our God? You are the God who works wonders; You have made known Your might among the peoples. Psalm 77:11-14\n \n
