Riverside Baptist Church

About this church

Riverside Baptist Church in Washington, D.C., holds Sunday worship at 10 a.m. at 699 Maine Avenue SW, and the service is also livestreamed. Many people arrive around 9:45, coffee is available in the multipurpose room before and after, and dress ranges from casual to formal. Worship is described as participatory, with music running from traditional hymns to contemporary songs, and messages drawn from Scripture and lived experience.

On third and fourth Sundays, a Children's Corner gives kids their own space: on third Sundays they stream the second half of the service and discuss the sermon, and on fourth Sundays they take part in a 30-minute children-centered worship and creativity time. Volunteers working with children go through background checks. The church's ministries include music, justice and outreach, spiritual growth, hospitality teams, and media and events, and it also offers a scholarship program and hosts weddings and baptisms. Free parking is available in the residential garage reached from I Street on Sunday mornings, and the church can also be reached by Metro from L'Enfant Plaza or Waterfront stations, by the Wharf shuttle, or by bus. The office is open Monday through Thursday, and the phone number is 202-554-4330. Confirm times on the website.
