Join Us at Mount Olive Baptist Church!

Proclaiming the Gospel Since 1873

Founded on August 17, 1873, in Washington, DC—shortly after the Emancipation Proclamation—Mount Olive Baptist Church has been a beacon of faith and hope for over 150 years. Nestled in the heart of the vibrant NOMA community, just steps from Capitol Hill, we remain committed to the timeless mission of sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Whether you're visiting or seeking a church home, Mount Olive Baptist Church welcomes all who are hungry for fellowship, spiritual growth, and a deeper connection with God. While we proudly honor our rich tradition as a historic African American congregation, we invite everyone—no matter your background—to experience the love, grace, and transformation found in Christ.

As it was in 1873, so it is today: Mount Olive continues to proclaim the Word of God through clear, expository, and practical preaching that speaks directly to the challenges and triumphs of our daily lives.
Come and be a part of something special.

Mount Olive Baptist Church—A place where faith meets community and the Gospel remains relevant to our world today.
