Dear Friends,
Welcome to the Shiloh Baptist Church website which celebrates the historic inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama as our 44th President of the United States Much of the world joins us as we celebrate this truly momentous event.A few weeks ago as we gathered in our sanctuary to watch the election returns we held a special worship and prayer service. ABC News covered our gathering and reporters from the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) and the Manchester Guardian took interviews. We are delighted that in partnership with ABC News, Shiloh is one of the venues to watch the swearing in of our next president, as well as the parade and other exciting events.
We invite you to take a moment to read about our church and also the exciting events that Shiloh has planned leading up to and including the inauguration. You will see that we are honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. with a prayer breakfast on Saturday, January 17 and celebratory inaugural worship services on Sunday morning, January 18. Please visit our website and decide how you can join us in this celebration of the life and work of Dr. King, as well as the inauguration of President-Elect Obama. To the many visitors who will be in Washington during this time, we invite you to make Shiloh your home for these events.
As you browse our website you will find information concerning the viewing area on the Mall including directions, a map of viewing areas and other general information that will help you plan and enjoy your day. You will also see that we are holding an Inaugural Ball on the evening of Inauguration Day.Thank you for visiting our web site. We hope you will join us for some, or all, of these events.
