Superintendent Porter and Sister Porter                                                     

The Praise Zone is a ministry of praise, worship, growth, diversity, and unity.  The ministry is directed by the Holy Scriptures, under the strong leadership of the senior servant of the ministry, Pastor David J. Porter.  Pastor Porter also serves as the Superintendent of the Great Commission District of local churches.   Pastor Porter, his lovely wife, Nicole Porter, and the entire Praise Zone membership assembly, welcomes you to come join us at the "PRAISE ZONE" campus for a weekend service.  See the "Worship and Services Schedule"  and  our Ministry Calendar at the top left of this screen.

Whether you're just beginning to know about Jesus, or you've been following Him all your life, there's a place for you here at the Praise Zone. Take the 4-Week Challenge: It's hard to judge a church by attending only one weekend service, so we've got a challenge for you. Come each week for four (4) weeks, and if you don't see marked improvements in your daily and spiritual life, perhaps we're not the church for you; but if you do see a change, join the membership, get involved, and become a disciple. Then keep coming and bring others, because that's just the beginning of all God has for you! Follow Jesus with us by Praising God, Embracing People and Changing Lives, as we serve Together.  


Click the Bible to view a growing catalog of relevant sermons.  Then plan to join us or invite someone to join you for one of our exciting weekend services - Praising God, Embracing People and Changing Lives, and next consider becoming a disciple at the PRAISE ZONE. 

ENGAGING, RELEVANT, INSPIRATIONAL  - These are Words  that describe the Worship Experience at the Praise Zone.  Led by Pastor, David J. Porter, worshippers are invited to seek a deeper and more intimate connection with God, expand their faith by learning the scriptures, and demonstrate their faith through stewardship and servanthood. 


Members and our guests are fortunate to experience a sense of family and community at the Praise Zone.   All people regardless of ethnicity, race, gender, economic background are welcomed at the Praise Zone. The Word is delivered in a way that everyone can relate to.  Loving God, and the Word of God are made real and can be applied to your life, no matter where you are on your spiritual journey.  Come join us as we Praise God, Embrace People and Change Lives.

However, when you arrive, be prepared to worship the Lord boldly, and join a formidable ministry force for his Holiness.   Join us for a weekend service as we Praise God, Embrace People, and Change Lives.
 
When joining our ministry,  you will experience worship,
praise and spiritual study.  We appeal to people who
have a deep thirst for spiritual knowledge and those who seek, desire and expect superior results from their effort. Whether a single dad, single mom, divorcee, teenager, or longtime married couple; whether African American, Caucasian, Asian, Hispanic, Pacific Islander or other;  whether working or unemployed;  a homeowner or renter; a post-college graduate, high school graduate, or still in grade school—the Praise Zone has a place for you in our ministry.

During the week, you are encouraged to join us for a small group Bible Study for all age groups Monday - Thursday at 7:00 - 8:00 p.m. at designated sites throughout the Washington, DC Metro area. Contact us at (301) 899-6588 for a location convenient to you.


1st Kings 11:38“AND IT SHALL BE! If thou wilt harken unto all that I command thee, and will walk in my ways and do that is right in my sight, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did: that I will be with thee and build thee a sure house, as I built for David and I will give Israel unto thee.”

As approved by the membership assembly of the church ministry, in good standing, during prior official church business meetings of the ministry, under the leadership vision of Pastor David Porter, and fully supported by the Officers of the ministry and Trustee Board, the initial phase of the feasibility study of expanding the sanctuary has been completed. 

The next phase is underway and will be completed the end of the second week of June 2012.  The officers of the ministry will review all information and options, the latest government plans for the general area,  and arrange for presenting the findings and proposals to the membership assembly of good standing.  The purpose will be to conclude the structural and site requirements, feasibility and associated opportunity costs and benefits to nearly doubling the current worship facility seating, that includes adding restrooms,  expanding the current restrooms facilities, and adding an elevator.  This current effort is for projected efforts to complete the construction phase if deemed feasible by the end of June 2013.  This effort comes on the heels of the acquisition of approximately two (2) additional acres of land adjacent to the current campus property, and precludes our announced plans to acquire an additional three (3) acres of land in preparation for the future of the ministry, it's members and the surrounding communities.  This aforementioned announcement of futher expansion by the membership assembly came shortly after the Praise Zone membership completed a 30% parking lot expansion,  and extensive enhancements to the interior of the sanctuary.  There is much ahead for God's work and His people.
