The present building was started
about 1766, three years after the
vestry decided the original structure
was unfit for repair. The church,
built by James Wren, was complet-
ed in 1853. A year before work be-
gan on the present building, Truro
parish was divided into Fairfax and
Truro parishes, with Falls Church
becoming a part Of the new parish.
The Rev. Townshend Dade was rec
tor at the time the present building
was constructed.
The church, which during the
American Revolution served as
recruiting headquarters for Maj.
Charles Broadwater, was abandoned
as place of worship shortly after
1887. 1t wasn't until during the
1905 that Capt. Henry Fairfax, who
commanded the Fairfax Volunteers,
restored the church. He is buried
near the present church walls.
Federal troops used the church as
a hospital during the Civil War.
boICl SdfdI was SldtlUIlcu AL Ull6
town and the church was used as a
stable, the interior being cleared out
SO the animals could be housed.
The Government paid $1,000 after
the war to repair the building so it
could be used for services. The Rev.
r. T. Brown was rector during this
period.
The church was restored to its
original appearance through the
efforts of the Rev. G. S. Somerville,
rector from 1899 to 1908, and the
National Society of the Daughters
of Founders and the Patriots of
America.
Rectors who served the church
for long periods during the present
century were the Rev. r. A. Castle
man, 1917 to 1881, and the Rev. W.
Leigh Ribble, 1885 to 1945.
The following present-day COM
municants have served the church

mission of establishing the kingdom
of heaven upon earth.
Their method, prescribed by Him,
was simplicity itself. They were to
be witnesses for Him, testifiers of
what they had known. They were
equipped with a story that would
one day change the world.
Christianity has, in worldly wis
dom, built up great organizations
and institutions. Multitudes OF
nominal disciples are today more
loyal to the Church of Christ then
to the Christ of the Church. Their
denominational zeal has resulted in
the unhappy division of Christen-
dom.
1t has taken two world wars to
teach many of us the reality of
"one world" Yet Jesus indicated
the whole world as the field for
Christian witnessing The good
news is to be carried everywhere
The modern Atlas is the Christian
who carried on his soul the weight
of whole world, which needs the
life-changing Gospel of Christ more
than it needs anything else.
The story Of Jesus ends upon a
definitely missionary note. Each OF
us is to be Christian witness, not
only to his family and neighbors
but also to the uttermost person
when he can by any means reach.

OUR EXPENSES ARE HIGHEST
IN HISTORY

Payroll costs are now 1879 higher
than in 1910. The increase comes
both from higher wage levels, and
because we have added 3O3l more
