Seeker's Church

Seekers Church has a long history with FLOC (For Love of Children.)

Fred Taylor, one of our co-founders, was the executive director of FLOC when it began in 1965. The Spirit has always led Seekers Church, as individuals and as a family of faith, into missions and ministries that support children and families. FLOC is dedicated to providing students in the District of Columbia with the resources they need to achieve educational and personal success.

On January 17th, Allison Henken and Amber Shollenberger brought us a message of hope and a call for help. Their sermon felt like a strong affirmation of our worship theme for this season after Epiphany: "Look What?s Here!"

On Christmas Eve we were blessed in so many ways as we gathered for our annual celebration of food and song and prayer. We welcomed many of our “graduates,” who returned from far and near to wait together again the birth of Jesus.

Each year we renew our commitment to Christ and to the Seekers Church in a conscious and intentional way. This annual recommitment is a key element in the life of Seekers Church, maintaining a tradition of the Church of the Saviour begun with the initial commitment of founding members in 1947.

This year "Recommitment Sunday" will be observedduring worship on the third Sunday of October, the 18th. This recommitment season is an opportunity for each of us to envision the future for Seekers Church and the part we are called to play in the next chapter of our life together.

Street Corner Majesty is the name of a wonderful book of poetry by David Harris. Seekers Church has connections to David through several of the missions we support including Community Council for the Homeless at Friendship Place.

What the members of the Seekers Community do, along with a multitude of other volunteers, donors and staff of Shepherd's Table is to gladden the hearts of every human being who seeks services with us. While our mission is to provide basic human services, our greater goal is to impact people’s lives, creating an atmosphere of welcoming, friendship, support, and hope.
