Washington Temple doesn't deserve the lack of community participation its receiving. It was built on a foundation of Faith teachings and Holy Ghost Preachings and God was always in the presence. I heard that Eric Washington is writing a book about the great Bishop and Madame FD Washington. Eric is their Grandson who has turned over a new leaf in his life, I guess he's all grown up and ready to take the mantel and bring life back to his Grandparents legacy. I'll write back as I hear more....
My family (Armsteads) was raised in this church... My grandmother (Sis. Daisy Johnson) still goes to this church now.. I knew and adored Bishop Washington and Mother Ernestine... They are my FAMILY... Even my Uncle (Kelvin Armstead) used to sing on the choir... (RIP)...
He use to me my pastor in Brooklyn when I was growing up. When u walk into the the building I remember a sign that said prayer changes things. He was an inspiration to me. I miss him. And his wife, what a songbird. wow!
Thank you Minister Jimmie Rodgers! What a great preacher of the gospel of Jesus Christ, he made and even continues to make, COGIC proud to have had him among us for the time he was here. I whish we had preachers like him today!! Elder Elisha B. Morris
This is truly a blessing to see Bishop FD on You-tube. Did you all know that Bishop FD Washington was Al Sharpton's pastor? He talks about him all the time.
@prelate74 Yes I knew I was a part of Washington Temple when Al was there. I got saved under his ministry. I loved this church. This is where I received my foundation... Amen. I shall miss Bishop Washington... He has left a great legacy.
@prelate74 thats hard to believe I think Al Sharpton should have listened a little better to this great man of God and he might be preaching the truth today like him rather than the chaff that he spews so liberally today!!!
Thank you so much. I have been looking and waiting for videos of this great Pentecostal giant. We used to travel up to Brooklyn from DC to hear this man of God and we always looked to hear him preach for Bishop Samuel Kelsey during the DC Convocations and Workers Meetings in the 70s. He was a great pastor and an excellent pulpiteer. He could preach the Bible and any thing else and people would be blessed under the power of the Holy Ghost.
Hear Bishop Washington Preach takes me back to my childhood hearing him preach on the radio every sunday morning, the greatest Gospel Preacher of his time. I would also love to hear Lady Washington sing too.
Been wanting to see and hear the Late Great Bishop F D Washington.1st time hearing r seeing him that was a good one when he said he never of a animal being an homosexual are a dog being a sissy. He had me rolling.some xcellent point thou I;ve never heard of them . THAMKS Minjimmierodgers now could you please post some footage on bishop's wife.Ernestine B washington who they said was a singing machine .I want to see and hear her. they called her the SONGBIRD of the East!!!
