Roundups
Free Carseat Inspections
Certified technicians from the Sully District Police Station will
perform free, child safety carseat inspections Thursday, March
31, from 5-8:30 p.m., at the station, 4900 Stonecroft Blvd. in
Chantilly. No appointment is necessary. But residents should in-
stall the child safety seats themselves so technicians may prop-
erly inspect and adjust it, as needed.
Because of time constraints, only the first 35 vehicles arriving
on each date will be inspected.
That way, inspectors may have enough time to properly in-
struct the caregiver on the correct use of the child seat. Call 703-
814-7000 to confirm dates and times.
Taize Service on
Human Trafficking
Wellspring United Church of Christ in Centreville will have a
Taize service on Sunday, April 3.
The emphasis will be prayer for the many faces or forms of
human trafficking unfolding not only outside the U.S. but also
here in Northern Virginia, and considering the role of the church
in addressing the problem.
Trafficking in persons involves activities where one person
obtains or holds another person in compelled service. Forms of
human trafficking that will be covered include forced, cheap,
and child labor, sex trafficking, selling of human organs, illegal
child adoption, child soldiers, and others.
