What Our Visitors Say

“I was thoroughly impressed with the facility…All the kids on our trip couldn’t stop talking about this being the best choir tour they had ever been on and that is all due to your facility and help with finding us places to serve and perform…”

- D. Meggs, Bluff Park United Methodist, Birmingham, AL

Washington Seminar Center (WSC) is a low-cost lodging/meeting facility for groups visiting the nation’s capital with educational, social, political, and spiritual objectives in mind.

WSC was established in 1978 as a service ministry of Capitol Hill Presbyterian Church and comprises the lower level of the church’s historic 1869 building.We are located within walking distance of the U.S. Congress, Supreme Court, Library of Congress, and Smithsonian Institution.

Our overnight facility, with its proximity to these famous institutions, allows youth and adult groups from across the country access to an inner-city environment that also happens to be home to our national government.  With more than 1600 program participants annually, we provide opportunities for visitors to learn about important national and international issues, as well as mission opportunities with people in need right here on Capitol Hill.

Allow the ideas on our Design Your Program page inspire you for your visit! Our Program Coordinator can support you in creating a program that suits your group’s unique interests.
