FLC Welcome

New Here?

Start Here

Whether it is for a season or for a lifetime, we want you to know how valuable and welcome you and your family are!  We are delighted to be part of your journey of faith and look forward to meeting you and walking together into what the Lord has for you at Free Life Church.

We believe church is more than checking a box.  There is a reality to God’s goodness that we desire to see in our midst on an ongoing basis.  We get excited to see and hear how God has moved  in the everyday lives of His people. When we gather, either on Sunday morning or at our monthly Encounter Nights, our prayer is that our time of worship would enable people to encounter God afresh and anew.  He delights in being with His people!

What You Can Expect

Start Here

Our Mission

Building a culture where people know God and advance His Kingdom.

As believers, we are ambassadors for the Kingdom of Heaven, to bring His world and accomplish His will here in Northern Virginia and to all of the earth.

“Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” -Matthew 6:10, ESV

Our Vision

Encounter

We believe that people need to encounter the God who created them. The first and greatest encounter is our salvation, but it doesn’t end there. We endeavor to build our lives pursuing God’s presence and trusting His power to manifest in our day-to-day lives.

Equip

We believe God desires His children to grow into strong and mature disciples who walk in freedom and victory in their lives. We desire to see people “equipped for the work of the ministry.”

Engage

We believe people are part of Gods family, and this requires strong, authentic relationships with other believers and to be intentional in building those relationships. We also desire to see our church engaging our community and sharing the love of Jesus with everyone.

Our History

In 2002, a small group of friends passionate about Jesus and His Kingdom met regularly in a home in Loudoun County, Virginia for prayer, worship, and Bible Study.  They knew the Lord was calling them to be a part of a church plant in Loudoun.

Through a beautiful story, Ken and Michelle Grenfell where called to Virginia to join them and plant what would grow to be Free Life Church, based on a deep, abiding personal relationship with Jesus Christ, a passion for (teaching on) the spiritual realm, devotion in worship and prayer, and a focus on local and international missions.  Within a year, the church had grown to 40 families.

In February 2015, 12 years after its humble beginnings, Ken and Michelle followed the prompting of the Lord and handed over the leadership of the church to their son and his wife, Clayton and Jen Grenfell, who had already been serving in the church for many years.

The Lord has continued to bless and grow the FLC family as we continue to pursue His presence as our focus. We know the Lord has good plans in store for us.

Ken and Michelle Grenfell now lead a ministry called Restoring the Wells  and remain on the Leadership Team of FLC. They travel extensively teaching and ministering in other churches across the US, Canada, and other parts of the world.
