Our Story
Dwelling Place began with a few families hungry for more of God—longing for an authentic community where His presence is pursued and His Spirit is welcomed. From the very beginning, our desire has been to host His presence, stand on His Word, and experience His power at work among us. We gather with expectation to see lives healed and hearts transformed through the truth of Scripture and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. We are desperate for revival, and even in our brokenness, we encounter the beauty and grace of God.
For five months, we met in our pastor’s home, worshiping in simplicity but with great hunger. In August 2025, as our fellowship grew, God opened the door for us to move into Greenbriar West Elementary School. We loved having access to a spacious gym where our kids could stay active without feeling cramped, and we spent a fruitful year gathering there.
However, after one year at the school, Pastor Moses sensed the Lord say, "Invest in people, not a building." Listening to that prompt, we made the intentional decision to move our gatherings back into the home. While we cherished our time in the school building, returning to a home setting freed us to direct our resources where it matters most: investing in global and local missions, hosting inner healing conferences, seminars, and retreats, and actively reaching out to the lost.
At Dwelling Place, we believe deeply in the unity of the Body of Christ. We are not just building a church service—we are building a spiritual family that lives out the calling of every believer as priests unto God, carrying His presence into our community and to the ends of the earth.
Our Mission
Our mission is to reach our DMV community and the nations with the love of Christ, to make disciples who follow Him wholeheartedly, and to equip the saints for the work of ministry. (Matthew 28:19–20; Ephesians 4:12–16)
