The Washington New Church School
- High quality religious Education Since 1970
- Serving grades Jr. Kindergarten - 10th grade
- Outstanding Academics
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.

Preparation for Heaven
No, it's not about death and dying, it's about living in a way that fits with heavenly life and so not only prepares us for life after death but confirms heavenly qualities with us in this world.
Check out the summer sermon series about this preparation: - what it takes, how it works, and what it really means to be "saved". Many of these talks are based on parables found in the Gospels, and explain the symbolic meaning of otherwise confusing details in these stories. Go to sermons in the resource tab and come back every week or two through the summer for more.
