We celebrate the life of our beloved church member Sadye Elizabeth Dunn Doxie (March 18, 1937 — November 21, 2025).
Sadye and her late husband, Mel, joined First Baptist Church in April 1986. During the next four decades, Sadye served FBC in a variety of ways: as a deacon, greeter, archivist, church moderator and member of the Tapestry Bible study class. For nearly forty years, Sadye was a luminous presence in our faith community—a woman of kindness, strength, and spiritual depth.
We’re located at 16th and O Streets NW—in the heart of Washington, a mile north of the White House. We are part of the Dupont Circle and Logan Circle neighborhoods. Need more info? Call us or click below.
We look forward to greeting you in person. In the meantime, you can request prayer or ask a question by calling or sending an email.
At First Baptist DC, giving is the fuel that powers every congregational expression of hospitality, compassion, generosity and justice. FBC relies on the congregation for regular, sustainable financial support.
