Welcome to the Washington New Church, a congregation of the worldwide Church of the New Jerusalem. We represent a new kind of Christianity based on the symbolic meaning of the Bible, a radical new understanding of the Trinity and a process of salvation that emphasizes free will and personal responsibility. Our teaching, which is drawn from the Scriptures and from the revelations of Emanuel Swedenborg, also includes more comprehensive information about Divine Providence and life after death than any other Christian religion.
Come and see! Call any time. And please, join us for worship any Sunday at 11:00 am. Among other things you will find some representative recent sermons on this site. ![]()

New Years Resolutions
New Year, New Beginnings; you’ve heard (or read) it all before. The trouble with New Year’s Resolutions is that when radical changes are proposed without the proper preparation they are pretty hard to sustain.
In contrast, thoughtful preparation, including a plan with disciplined steps in a calculated process can yield amazing results.
The heavenly doctrines of the New Church are very clear about the process of regeneration. No one is really changed in a moment, but by a gradual and progressive shift from one way of living to another. Check out the January 2012 Newsletter to learn more.

Read what one parent says about The Washington New Church School, "Three of my children have gone through WNCS, and it's an amazing place to learn and grow. The children feel safe and nurtured as well as intellectually stimulated. One can sense this in the atmosphere at the school: joyful and charged with energy. I can't imagine a better place to prepare my children academically and spiritually." Amanda H., Mitchellville, MD.
