I had a young man ask in despair, “why was he here?” and “what was his purpose in life?” I could see the sadness in his face and told him that there are some old folks that don’t know what you just asked. We sometimes think we are the only ones confused. We sometimes think [...]

Had a great worship experience today. The church was packed. We gained a candidate for baptism. After church we celebrated the birthday of one of our Deacon Ward, with a nice meal and cake put together by Minister Blue. The Message was from the “Beatitudes,” found in Matthew 5:1-12. Pastor explained how the Sermon on [...]

Bring your family to church this Sunday and fellowship with us. The worship has been on fire. The church club donated money to get a new wireless microphone and [...]

Mind, Body and Soul. I heard a couple of nice things today at church. I heard a man testify that he loved his wife and appreciated her after being married to her for almost 61 years. Then he said he didn’t want to tell her personally cause she might get a big head and “start [...]

Everybody has their opinion on how the music should be played, or how long a church service should be but I think last Sunday was one of our best. Pastor reminded us not to worship Dr. King, nor his likeness. Make sure you worship the Creator and not the created. It started off with fervent [...]

This is a day set aside to have a cookout with the church and our neighbors. We don’t charge for the food (that wouldn’t be neighborly). We just serve it up like you are family. It is our hopes that we meet some of the people we see every week that don’t go to our [...]

Our little church doesn’t have much but what it does have is beautiful. We don’t have a steeple or stained glass windows. We don’t have a big choir or activities that go on every night. We don’t have gospel concerts or famous people dropping by. We don’t have a nursery (yet) but are new baby [...]

The month of August approaches like the tide. It waits for no man. It should be a warm month continuing in love and fellowship for our little church on the corner of this northeast DC street. We hope to share our bounty with the neighborhood with a community picnic. Nothing elaborate, just some hot dogs [...]

We gained two new members today. Service was long but we’ll work on that. We are a work in progress. We are a rough canvas, transforming from one thing into something better. Minister Blue preached about “Keeping the Main Thing, the Main Thing.” He reminded and illustrated it using four “M’s” —the need to keep [...]

Our church is Baptist. This means that one of the basic tenants of our doctrine is baptism by immersion and observing the Lords Supper. What one the things that separate us from others is that we believe you must be of the age of consent before you can be baptized. We don’t baptize anyone that [...]
