The Power of Weakness
Rev. Lynngood
Again and again in ways both subtle and overt we are told that strength, power, and aggressiveness are virtues. This morning we’ll look at the gifts that vulnerability and weakness have to offer.

All Souls Church, Unitarian is a progressive religious community located in the heart of Washington, DC, at the intersection of the Mt. Pleasant, Adams Morgan, and Columbia Heights neighborhoods. We walk diverse spiritual paths to find meaning and purpose in our lives, but we are united in our belief in the worth and dignity of all people, and the obligation to express our faith through acts of justice and compassion. We hope you'll join us as we create a diverse, spirit-growing, justice-seeking community that is true to our name, All Souls!
Due to the historic snowstorm, All Souls Church will be completely closed on Sunday, February 7. Both worship services, religious education, and all other meetings are cancelled.
The church office will remain closed on Monday, February 8.
Please remain home and enjoy this beautiful gift of a weekend with friends and family.
Help the people of Haiti

It is that time again in our All Souls Church year to launch our annual budget drive, the Generosity Campaign. As the country works to hold steady and rebuild in difficult times, so does All Souls Church. This will be a church year of careful stewardship of our resources; we will work to do more with the same level of resources as last year. We are also coming back together as a whole community and will strive for greater solidarity. As Rev. Hardies said in his Homecoming Sunday sermon, solidarity is more than a political strategy; it is a spiritual practice, a recognition of our interdependence, and an opportunity to be more generous to the neediest in our neighborhood and community. If you are interest in joining the Generosity Committee or in discussing your financial commitment for 2010, please contact Aaron Knight (aaronmknight@hotmail.com).
Coming to DC? Stay in an All Souls Church, Unitarian B&B. All proceeds from the program benefit our historic church and support our many spiritual and social justice ministries. More information here.
Joyful music is central to our life together at All Souls Church. The All Souls Choir, one of the first multiracial choirs in DC, celebrates a half century of musical excellence, singing a repertoire as diverse as our congregants. The artistic versatility of the singers allows the ensemble to perform everything from ancient church chant to Fauré, spirituals to South African songs, jazz to gospel.
The Ministers' Journey towards Social Justice
1821-Present
We still deal with many of the same issues today that the All Souls ministers have been challenging their members to consider through almost 200 years in the nation’s capital: race, rights, environment, peace and more. The Ministers’ Journey tells a story of leadership, courage and justice through almost two centuries of work in contentious times.
