Emmanuel Baptist Church WDC

As Emmanuel Baptist Church of Southeast Washington, DC, we are a family (fellowship) of believers sharing a common commitment to Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.  Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we are growing toward Christian maturity with worship, proclamation, witness, nurture, education and ministry to the world.  We do this so that God’s purpose may be achieved in us (our local fellowship), in the community (including the wider faith community) and in the world.  The Spirit of the Lord is upon us because He has anointed us to preach good news to the poor.  He sends us to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.
