St. George's Episcopal Church
St. George's Episcopal Church
AI Summary
Affectionately known as "The Little Church on the Corner," St. George's has been a Bloomingdale neighborhood presence since 1930 at the corner of Second and U Street (160 U St. NW). The parish honors its nearly 90‑year history with an oral history project submitted to the DC Public Library and DC Humanities Council and a documentary film, and has recently received a multi‑year reconciliation gift of $164,000 from St. Columba’s Beloved Community Fund. Under Priest‑in‑Charge Rev. Marilyn Jenkins (since February 2020) the community is affirming and outward‑facing, running outreach like the Kwanzaa Kitchen breakfast program (which partners with Howard University for dental screenings) and an MLAY scholarship while offering both in‑person and online prayer and formation. The 1969 building—renovated in 2008 with an elevator—is well cared for by part‑time sexton Steven Brown, and music from Parish Voices blends traditional and contemporary gospel that many visitors find warmly welcoming.
