We’re excited to announce that Bike & Walk to Worship Week is returning with a new name - Walk, Bike & Roll to Worship Week - and now includes two weekends for even more participation! This year's event will be held September 13-21, 2025.
This unique event empowers congregations to celebrate in ways that reflect their own values and community spirit. Whether you organize a group walk or bike ride to worship, offer a “blessing of the bikes,” host a neighborhood prayer walk, or provide refreshments to those who arrive by foot or bike - your participation makes a meaningful difference.
FCDOT will support your efforts by providing:
- A planning toolkit
- Event branding materials
- Guidance on routes and safety
- Promotion of your event on Fairfax County Transportation’s Facebook page (search “Fairfax County Transportation”)
Walk, Bike & Roll to Worship Week is a wonderful fit for committees focused on:
- Environmental stewardship: Active transportation is eco-friendly and helps reduce parking demand.
- Health and wellness: Promoting physical activity strengthens community health.
- Fellowship and family-building: A fun, inclusive way for members and families to connect.
- Equity: Support safe, affordable, and accessible transportation options for all ages and abilities.
