The prophet who called fire from heaven is now hiding under a desert shrub, praying to die. What does Elijah's breakdown teach us about faith, exhaustion, and the God who meets us with breakfast in our darkest moments? Join us as we explore what happens when caring people encounter sick systems—and how God responds to our exhaustion not with shame, but with food, rest, and the reminder that we're not alone.
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.
