About St. Patricks was founded in 1911 as a mission of St. Albans Parish to serve Episcopalians in the area who found it difficult to travel in the pre-automobile era. The original red brick chapel was located across from Greenwich Parkway on Foxhall Road. Built in 1914, this structure was torn down in 1927 and a new Gothic chapel was built on the Northeast corner of Greenwich Parkway and Foxhall Road. Additions and renovations were made in 1953 and 1966 ( see photo ). To accommodate an expanding parish and to consolidate church and school activities, the decision was made to move to the present location. The new church, which received several design awards, was occupied in 1985. St. Patricks Episcopal Day School was founded in 1956 as a parish school. The addition of elementary grades to the kindergarten and nursery school began in 1966. The school, with over 500 students, now goes through the eighth grade. The school and the Church are located on the same site and share many of the same facilities. The Rev. F. Ernest Warren came to St Patricks in 1933 as Vicar and he served as the first rector when St. Patricks became an independent parish in 1946. Other rectors include the Rev. John F. Stevens, the Rev. Wm. R. Williams, the Rev. Thomas D. Bowers, the Rev. Christopher R. Sherrill, the Rev. S. James Steen, and the Rev. Elizabeth S. McWhorter. The current rector is the Rev. Dr. Kurt Gerhard. In the future, as in the past, St Patricks will offer the opportunity for enriching lives and the challenge to face up to changing social responsibilities. St. Patricks is an inclusive Eucharistic community with a long-standing commitment to outreach and the love and care of children. Please join us.

Grace Episcopal Church, Georgetown, was founded to serve the laborers, craftsmen, shopkeepers, and watermen of the Georgetown waterfront. By 1857 regular services were being held in a wooden chapel that stood in the southwest corner of the churchyard, where the World War I memorial cross now stands. The Evening Star reported in February, 1895, It is the only church here in a really poor district and whenever its pastor is not in the pulpit or fulfilling his own immediate wants he is out among his people dispensing aid to the unfortunate. Outreach to the community, particularly lower Georgetown, has remained a vital ministry of Grace Church. In the late 1960s programs were created for the many young people living on the streets of Georgetown, including job counseling, a food cooperative, advice on drug abuse and other programs. By 1970, the church and its grounds frequently served as an emergency crash pad for the homeless. In 1987, Grace Church made a home for the Georgetown Ministry Center ( GMC ) for the homeless. This relationship has grown over the years and in September 2003 the GMC moved into their beautiful new facility built under the rectory and parish hall. This new facility provides private counseling space as well as a shower and a washer and dryer for use by the homeless served by the GMC. Grace Church remains the only religious institution in lower Georgetown. Grace Church is committed to not only continuing its outreach program to the disenfranchised of the community, but also to providing a spiritual refuge for everyone living and working in the Georgetown area regardless of their religious affiliation. Visitors to Grace find a warm welcome, wonderful music, and a heartfelt faith. Join us for a service, an event, or just moment of quiet during your day.

St. John's Episcopal Church in Georgetown is across O Street from the Hyde-Addison school. The church sits on a hill, straddling O Street and Potomac Street, and was founded in 1796. Francis Scott Key and Thomas Jefferson were founders.

Today the parish hosts both spiritual and social events. Church members go on monthly "field trips" to places of interest like the Newseum and the Franciscan Monastery. Additional activities include an annual picnic, a Christmas greens sale and a monthly movie night. The church's sign, emblazoned with the expression "all are welcome," exemplifies the attitude of the parish towards its neighboring community.
