About this church

Capitol Hill United Methodist Church offers a more casual Sunday service at 9:00 a.m., often outdoors in the parking lot, and a more traditional sanctuary service at 10:30. The later gathering includes clergy and lay leadership, choir, Scripture, prayer, and preaching, followed by refreshments and conversation in the Parlor. Holy Communion is normally shared on the first Sunday of the month and is open to all. The congregation describes its worship as traditional but not stuffy and welcomes children throughout the service.

Children can also join a 10:30 program that uses songs, prayer, games, crafts, and Bible study; families who stay in the sanctuary can use a children’s worship area with toys and sermon-related activities. Youth in grade six and above gather Sunday evenings, and SAGE supports spiritual growth and community among older adults. The church has been a Reconciling congregation since 2005, publicly welcoming people of all sexual orientations and gender identities. Its migrant ministry grew from receiving buses in 2022 into Free Store and respite initiatives offering supplies and community to newcomers. The church is at 421 Seward Square Southeast near Capitol Hill. Check the current site for weather-related outdoor-service changes and the latest outreach needs.
