Our History
Humble Beginnings
A vision for New Chapel became a reality in 1968 in the basement of Pastor William Hill's Home located at 1968 Fendall Street, S.E., Washington, D.C. with his wife Missionary Cenell Hill by his side.
Moving to higher heights, New Chapel relocated in 1970 to 1972 to Eastern Avenue, Fairmount Heights, MD. The Deacon Ministry and Trustee Ministry were formed. Additionally, the first choir which was the Senior Choir, was formed. The Busy Bees Children's Choir was also established. This edifice was destroyed by fire on October 16, 1972. In November, the Mayor of Fairmont Heights offered the church the use of the Municipal Center.
Growing Through Change
In 1972 found New Chapel on the move once again. At the 1709 Kenilworth Avenue address, in Beaver Heights, MD, the Ministry began to flourish immensely. The Lord sent more Disciples and the organization of ministries continued: the Missionary Ministry, Sunday School, the Men & Women's Ministry, the Ensemble Gospel Choir, the Gospel Choir, Men's Choir, the Usher Board, the Flower Guild, the Pastor's Aide Committee, Junior Church Ministry, and Transportation Ministry. The first van & bus were purchased during this period.
God was continuing to bless New Chapel spiritually and financially and Pastor William Hill was receptive of God's goodness. His vision was realized as the need for a larger sanctuary came into focus. In September 1978, New Chapel moved to 4311 R Street, Beaver Heights, MD.
