Chinese Community Church

About this church

Chinese Community Church in Washington, DC meets Sundays at 500 I Street NW, in the Chinatown area. A Cantonese and Mandarin service begins at 10:30 a.m. in a traditional worship style. An English service follows at 11:00 a.m., blending contemporary and traditional styles. Holy Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month, in person only, and the site lists a combined service on first Sundays, so confirm that morning's schedule before visiting. Services are held in person and on Zoom, and online participants can request links by emailing the church. The congregation describes itself as the first Chinese Christian church in DC, now multicultural and multigenerational.

Small groups called LIFE Groups meet during the week. They include a virtual Bible study for retired individuals and couples on Thursdays, a young adult and professional fellowship on Wednesday evenings, and a fellowship for young adult women on select Fridays. Teen Bible study and a married couples and family fellowship, with a potluck dinner and children's and teens' programs, meet on the second and fourth Fridays. A prayer group serves members in Virginia. Summer Vacation Bible School for ages 3 to 11 has also been offered. The church supports the Chinatown Service Center, which operates from the same building and provides counseling, English and citizenship classes, and social service referrals, especially for new immigrants, seniors, and children. For weather-related schedule changes, the church directs people to WTOP.
