A cash-strapped Fairfax County nonprofit will not need to immediately close its doors after its landlord, despite being owed three months of back rent, agreed to allow the group time to work out its financial problems, officials said.

Chantilly-based Western Fairfax Christian Ministries, which works to keep hundreds of low-income families out of homelessness through financial aid, counseling and other services, had warned Fairfax County supervisors last week that it would need to close its doors by May 5 without an infusion of funds.
