Homecoming Sunday
Rev. Rob Hardies
We return to two services and begin the new church year.
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!

Getting to know ourselves

Help us fulfill our mission and build a more connected All Souls community. Your participation is vitally important.
All Souls to Assisi
In 2011 (September 27-October 3), Rev. Rob Hardies will lead a group of Souls to Assisi, Italy, where St. Francis spent his last days. Each day, we'll walk with others or alone, often in silence, seeking peace and joy. Every evening, the community will gather before dinner to reflect on our journey. Along the way, we'll experience Umbrian culture, food and wine, and magnificent views across the hills.
The walks will be easy and the distances short, so all are welcome. More details here.
All Souls B&B
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.
