Metropolitan Baptist Church

 

Ministry Description

Metropolitan Baptist Church Network is a division of Metropolitan Baptist Church in Washington, DC under the leadership of Dr. H. Beecher Hicks, Jr.  Dr. Hicks is an anointed, dynamic preacher and teacher of the gospel.  Get ready to get inspired!  From our beginnings in a Quaker Civil War barracks in 1864 to the present, Metropolitan Baptist Church stands as a beacon of hope and faith within the Nation’s Capital.  Our odyssey of faith began with ten persons, committed to the truth of the Gospel and determined to live for Christ.  Under daunting and frightening circumstances, our forebears began in a small prayer meeting a movement that has produced a great harvest – a congregation that exceeds 6,000, construction of a new church facility that is valued in excess of $40 million, and a ministry that touches every segment of our community.  While predominately African American, our church is marked by numerous cultures and ethnic diversity. Metropolitan is a vibrant, multicultural congregation whose vision is as broad as the grace of God. We are a church in transition, building on the strength of our historic past while claiming the new location for ministry that God has given to us. We are developing a ministry to families with a continuing emphasis on the social dimensions of the gospel. Come grow with us as we seek to Become the Kingdom of God on earth.
