The New Macedonia Baptist Church, Washington DC, Reverend Patrick J. Walker

The New Macedonia Baptist Church was organized on Wednesday, January 1, 1958 by founders, Reverend H. C. Mack, Reverend Lorenzo Young, and a few members from New Southern Rock Baptist Church. Reverend Lorenzo Young was appointed as the Pastor with church services being held at 5th and P Streets in the northwest corridor of Washington, DC. The church was incorporated on March 25, 1958 by the Government of the District of Columbia. The first officers of the church included, Deacon William Duncan and Deacon Melvin Alexander, Trustee W.B. Munford and Trustee Edward Jones. The Faithful Gospel Chorus – the church’s first choir - was soon organized and consisted of one faithful member, the late Sister Minnie Walker. Later, Reverend Moore was appointed as Assistant Pastor of the church.

It is our purpose to win people to Christ (evangelism) and develop them to spiritual maturity (discipleship); while cultivating relationships with one another (fellowship); allowing them to visibly express God’s love to others (service) in order to magnify God’s name (worship). To ensure we fulfill our purpose, Pastor Walker has placed ministry leaders to oversee each of these five key areas; those who are skilled and gifted in their focus to develop programs that will allow us to continue to experience growth as we demonstrate God’s love and disciple God’s people!
