Christ Our Shepherd Church

About this church

Christ Our Shepherd Church meets for Sunday worship at 10 a.m. at 801 North Carolina Avenue SE on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., in a stone Romanesque church building from the 1890s that the congregation purchased in 1998. The service is available in person and online. The church began in 1987 out of a large home group and describes itself as an inter-denominational congregation that confesses the Apostles' and Nicene Creeds. Communion is held on the first Sunday of each month, and a Donuts and Discipleship gathering takes place on the third Sunday.

Small groups are central to church life. Members are encouraged to join a home group of about 4 to 12 people that meets weekly in a neighborhood home. Children have a Sunday school on the second and fourth Sundays after worship, with paid nursery workers on Sundays. Youth in junior and senior high meet for a Saturday home group on the second and fourth Saturdays and for a monthly youth church on a Sunday. The church holds monthly prayer gatherings, including prayer for missionaries and for the nations, and a men's breakfast on the first Saturday. Check the events page for current dates.
