The little children were being brought to Jesus in order that he might lay his hands on them and pray. The disciples spoke sternly to those who brought them; but Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.' --Matthew 19:13-15

Following the example of Jesus, outreach to children in the city of Washington, DC is a mission priority for Christ Church Georgetown. Ministry activities include support for two excellent academic institutions that serve children in the Southeast section of the city: The John Walker School for Boys and the Washington Middle School for Girls. Parishioners are also involved as tutors at several sites in the Washington, DC area.

The Advent Angel tree is sponsored and organized by the Youth and Family Ministry Committee and the Mission Committee. Over three hundred angels adorn the parish Christmas tree each Advent. The angels represent the Christmas wishes of children, served by mission partners, who might not otherwise receive a Christmas gift. Parish families select an angel; purchase and wrap a gift and return it for distribution by the mission partners.
