CHOOSING A NEW BISHOP

The Early Church had various methods for choosing a bishop. For Ambrose, a fourth century bishop, the job came as a surprise.

Welcome

Located in Woodley Park just off Connecticut Avenue, we strive to live out our name, that we might truly be a community for All Souls.

It doesn’t matter to us whether you’ve never been to church before, have been away for a while or might be a longtime Episcopalian. It doesn’t matter to us that you might be from another Christian tradition, from another faith altogether, or might simply be seeking a place of peace. All souls are welcome.

Some people know us from our Saturday farmer’s market. Others attend meetings in our building, enjoy our gardens or take advantage of parish programs. Many come for our celebration of the Holy Eucharist—most weeks the Mass is celebrated on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday. Precisely because our worship uses old words and ancient ritual, we find that this frees us to continue building a community that is diverse and loving, filled with celebration and joy.  Join us when you can and help us continue to welcome all souls.

The Reverend John Beddingfield
