A current local branch of the Church of God and Saints of Christ, in Washington, D.C., known as "First Tabernacle." The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Soon after Crowdy's arrival to Washington, D.C., this building was purchased by the congregation in 1903.

The Church of God and Saints of Christ is a Black Hebrew Israelite new religious group established in Lawrence, Kansas, in the United States, by William Saunders Crowdy in 1896.[2] William Crowdy began congregations in several cities in the Midwestern and Eastern United States, and sent an emissary to organize locations in at least six African countries. The congregation later established locations in Cuba and the West Indies.
