The Church at Clarendon
First Baptist Church of Clarendon - Main Campus
AI Summary
The church is led by Rev. Danielle L. Bridgeforth — the congregation’s twelfth and first woman senior pastor (serving since October 2017) who holds a JD and M.Div. and is the author of Vantage Point — with Dr. William L. Lake, Jr. (DMA) directing a blended musical worship. Founded in 1909, the sanctuary was rebuilt in 2012 as an eight‑story building with apartments above (about 60% designated affordable) and is LEED certified; the campus also houses Leland Seminary and the county’s largest child care center, and members helped found the Arlington Food Assistance Center. Visitors will find practical conveniences like a short walk from Clarendon Metro (Orange & Silver), free parking on level G3 of the Views Apartments garage with a reusable permit from the Welcome Hall, office hours Tue–Thu 9:00 AM–4:00 PM (and by appointment), a nursery for ages 6 months–3 years, and Children’s Sunday School twice a month using LifeWay’s Explore the Bible. The church emphasizes accessible spiritual life and service with Monday noon and midweek prayer meetings via WebEx/phone, an active mobile app and on‑demand sermons, livestreams and replays on Facebook/YouTube, online and text giving, scholarship programs, a 2026 Lenten devotional, and a mission to invite people to discover Christ and live with purpose.
