Our new building, located at 4339 Hunt Place in Washington DC’s 7th Ward, is a thrilling answer to prayer.

We envision it as a place of worship and a gathering point for the neighborhood that will allow us to expand our outreach ministries.

We invite you to partner with us as we seek to complete this purchase. We have already moved in on a rent-to-own basis, with a 3-year period to raise the funds (approx. $300,000) required to purchase.

Inspired by the church garden recently planted by our youth, we named it the SEED campaign.

In a community with incredible assets – rich history, vibrant culture and committed neighbors – as well as very real challenges – nearly a third of adults lack high school degrees, 3 in 8 children live in poverty and 2/3 of families are headed by single women – We are seeking to “plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness” (James 3:18) through:

• Biblical teaching, worship, and fellowship
• Children’s Sunday School and Vacation Bible School (80 kids each year)
• Teen Bible study and fellowship
  (20 students over the past few years)
• One-on-one GED tutoring for adults
  (9 adults over the past year)
• Support group for formerly incarcerated residents
  (3 adults over the past year)

JANELLE

Through our ministries we aim to support one person or family at a time. One example is Janelle, who began attending Peace with her family as a middle schooler. She participated faithfully in Teen Bible Study and was mentored by two women in the church, eventually electing to become a member and be baptized. This year, we were proud to send her off to college, where she has earned high marks and found both a Bible study and church home.

Our new building will allow us to reach more people like Janelle in new and exciting ways.
