The mission of ACTS of Prince William is to provide relief, foster hope and promote self-sufficiency for our Prince William area neighbors in crises due to hunger, homelessness and interpersonal violence. Steve Liga, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of ACTS, joined the organization this Spring and has made reaching those in need his life’s work.
IWALK is a partnership between ACTS, Image Church, and the Potomac Nationals. ACTS and Image Church have worked together for nearly a decade to support families in need and specifically through IWALK since 2011.

Travel to French soil and join us for a night filled with two of the most beloved French traditions—no plane ticket required! ?
On January 25th, we invite you to experience the magic of Galette des Rois, a 700-year-old tradition celebrated across France throughout the entire month of January (and even beyond!). This sweet, almond-filled puff pastry topped with a golden crown isn’t just a treat—it’s a celebration! The lucky person who finds the fève (a porcelain charm hidden in one of the slices) becomes the King or Queen for the Day, and don’t worry—there will be plenty of royalty to go around! ??
But that’s not all! In France, Les Voeux (New Year’s wishes) continue throughout January, often accompanied by Champagne and good cheer. We’re bringing that festive spirit to you, with a lively evening packed with French food, wine, and music.
