The mission of All Souls Church is to be a Christ-centered sanctuary where a diverse
community worships and serves. We live this mission through faithful celebration of the
Eucharist, Christian Education, and loving nurture of both members and neighbors.

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.

MTFA Architecture in Arlington, Virginia was retained by All Souls Memorial Episcopal Church to develop a Master Plan that would address the needs of the church for the next 20 years. To initiate this process MTFA facilitated a "Visioning Workshop" with a selected group of "Ambassadors" that represent a broad cross section of the congregation and church programs. The workshop was held on January 8th and 9th of 2010. The following objectives were established with the Ambassadors to guide the process.

On September 18, 2011 the Vestry and MTFA Architecture shared initial plans with the congregation for an addition to All Souls. Read More
