Welcome to NoVES!

We are a humanist congregation that practices Ethical Culture, a movement begun in 1876 by Felix Adler.

The mission of the Northern Virginia Ethical Society is to bring out the best in others and thereby in ourselves, strengthen our relationships with one another, and build a more humane world by offering a program that promotes ethical growth and learning, builds and sustains community and implements ethical action beyond our Society.

We invite you to visit us on a Sunday morning.  You might find the kind of caring, welcoming community you didn't even know was out there - just waiting for you to become part of it!

Ethical Action Update

It is time to prepare for back to school, and that means shopping for school supplies.  Many non-profits are holding school supplies drives.  Some purchase the kits that are grade specific, and are asking for cash donations only.  Many organizations are looking for adult sized back packs. 

Two organizations to consider

Britepaths, Fairfax    https://britepaths.org/our-services/back-school/
