I want to thank everyone for the heart-warming retirement recognition and reception! Your words and gifts meant more to me than I could ever adequately express.
My nine years at Westminster have flown by and your friendship and support have been priceless. The appreciation and love I have for each of you is beyond measure and I will miss your smiling faces and hearing your voices! Thank you! Thank you! Thank You! — Mickie
Westminster will have it’s annual food drive for Emergency Food Network, beginning Sunday, August 12, and continuing through Sunday, August 26. You may bring items to the designated spot in the gathering place, or to the base of the stairs in the office building. Signs will direct you.
If you need a list of suggested items, look in these spots and you’ll find a list.
Sorry, we can’t use home-canned or extra large size items. We CAN use some instant coffee, jams and jellies, medium size vegetables, tuna or chicken.
We do appreciate your years of continued assistance. The hungry of Charlottesville and Albemarle County thank you!

As our community continues to heal from the events of August 12, 2017, we look for ways to reclaim that date and celebrate the beauty of inclusivity, diversity and equality that define our community today. On August 12, 2018 you are invited to participate in a group singing event called “The C’ville Sing Out!” The C’ville Sing Out! is organized by members of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Choir. The event begins with a 2:00 rehearsal at Mt. Zion African Baptist Church, 105 Lankford Avenue. At 4:00 the group will gather at the IX Park, 955 2nd Street SE to perform three songs together: Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen, Glory by John Legend, and Charlottesville by local songwriter Evelyn Carter. Please go click here for more information and to register to participate.
