Promised Land Baptist Church

About this church

Promised Land Baptist Church gathers for in-person worship Sundays at 10:30 a.m. at 401 Van Buren Street NW in Washington, with a livestream for remote worshippers. The church also hosts a Wednesday prayer call at 6:30 a.m. and a Thursday noon prayer call. Its vision is to serve, teach, and demonstrate the saving grace of Jesus Christ, including a specific commitment to mentor and empower young people in both congregational and community life.

The congregation celebrated 50 years of ministry in 2018 and has worshipped at its present Van Buren Street location after earlier years on Farragut Street. Its history records choirs, technology upgrades, and an expansion into streamed and telephone-based ministry beginning in 2020. Community service includes collaboration with So Others Might Eat and Food & Friends, grocery gift cards for people facing emergency food needs, and increased scholarship support for students. For visitors in northwest Washington, Promised Land offers a clearly timed Sunday service, two weekday prayer options, online access, and a documented pattern of combining worship with food assistance, education, and youth investment.
