About Us

 
 

Eglise Baptiste du Calvaire started in early 1977 as an outreach mission of the French Speaking Baptist Church of Brooklyn, New York. Pastor Joseph Theodore, late Sister Lydia Edouard (a.k.a. Soeur Demet), Brother Roosevelt Michell, and Pastor Jean St-Ulmé led this mission to minister to a bourgeoning Haitian population in Washington, D.C. and its Maryland suburbs. The first official meeting was held on October 16, 1977 in the basement of Israel Philogène. Later on, the meetings were held at the National Baptist Church of Washington D.C. Hence, the First Evangelical Church of Washington D.C. was born and was led by the late Rev. Arthur Bonhomme.

Eglise Baptiste du Calvaire is a growing Haitian church in the Washington D.C. Metropolitan area. Our services are conducted mainly in Creole but French and English are used as well.

The church has outreach missions in Columbia -Maryland, Delaware and California.
