About this church
Brookland Union Baptist Church is a historically Black Washington congregation that grew from an outreach ministry into a permanent church family. Its story reaches back to 1945, when a vacant house became a place of worship; the congregation formally organized in 1947 and completed a larger building in 1965 as Brookland's Black church community expanded. Today it describes its purpose as reaching people and guiding them toward new life in Christ. Worship, Sunday School, midweek Bible study, and an online option give both neighborhood residents and remote participants regular ways to connect.
Sunday School begins at 9:00 a.m., followed by Sunday worship at 11:00 at the 14th Street church and online through the congregation's YouTube channel. Wednesday Bible study begins at 7:00 p.m.; the published passcode indicates that participants should follow the church's access link rather than simply arrive at the building. A testimonial on the service page specifically describes a family member with special needs being welcomed and treated with respect, offering a concrete view of the church's hospitality. Guests attending in person should use the Northeast Washington address, while online visitors can choose the service or study option that matches the access instructions on the current site.
