Immanuel Church-on-the-Hill is proud to be the first Episcopal church, and the first place of worship in the City of Alexandria, to be certified as a Tier 2 living wage congregation. In paying a true living wage, we are following the direction of the national Episcopal Church, which has long supported the idea of a living wage, and advocated for its adoption. We are also guided by our Book of Common Prayer, which asks God’s guidance of “the people of this land so to use our public and private wealth that all may find suitable and fulfilling employment, and receive just payment for their labor."

This represents over 100,000 pounds of carbon dioxide not emitted into the atmosphere and is the equivalent of 760 trees being planted! READ MORE
