Church family, we wanted to err on the side of caution and took all necessary safety protocols & steps tonight.

Due to the increase in random and unfounded threats at various institutions throughout the country, we wanted to exercise extreme caution. The Prince George’s County Police Department has confirmed that there was no credible threat or crisis.

We have and will continue to maintain and operate the highest level of safety measures and security procedures. We thank God that all is well & safe. To God be the Glory!!!!

During tonight’s event, we were informed of a safety threat.
Once notified, all attendees were asked to exit the church and we evacuated immediately.

Our church leadership is working closely with the Prince George’s County Police and Fire Departments to ensure all proper protocols and processes were and continue to be taken.

The safety of our church and the community is our top priority. We will continue to pray, trust God and provide updates. Please monitor our social media for any updates.
