Refuge Temple Church - Washington D.C.

Refuge Temple Church was founded December 12, 1989, in Washington, D.C., by Bishop William L. Bonner.

The first services were held at Days Inn, at 12th and K Streets, N.W. In February, 1990, Kelly Miller Junior High School, at 49th and Brooks Street, N.E., became the final temporary home.

The Lord blessed Pastor Bonner to acquire the land for the church in three weeks. October 27, 1990 was ground breaking day.

During the building process, many expressed great doubt saying the church would fail. On June 1, 1991, the first service was held at Refuge Temple Church.

God has miraculously brought this work to pass, demonstrating that this is only the beginning for the continuous winning of souls, for His Kingdom, in the Washington, D.C. area.
