Our Congregation

The Oakton congregation was established in 1903 by members of the Manassas Church of the Brethren who were living in Fairfax County. The Oakton Church of the Brethren in turn founded the Dranesville Church in Herndon.

Our congregation has a balance of ages and generations with a growing group of families with young children. Our church facility contains an elevator and bathrooms accessible for persons with disabilities.

Oakton is part of larger group of 63 congregations in the region that make up the Mid-Atlantic District. Our District Executive is Gene Hagenberger. The District churches collectively support numerous programs including outdoor ministries at Shepherd’s Spring Outdoor Ministries Center in Sharpsburg, Maryland, and Camp Mardela in Denton, Maryland.

Oakton Church of the Brethren is registered as a 501(c)(3) non-profit, religious organization.
