March 2 – Harriet Tubman Day

Join Washington Revels Jubilee Voices at Westminster Presbyterian Church, as they bring their unique blend of history, music, and spoken word to a program honoring the work of Harriet Tubman during and after the Civil War.

Jubilee Voices will sing a prelude and a special selection of music for the program.

In  1853, with the Capitol dome still under construction, 27 persons, with  the support of other congregations, committed to the vision of a  Presbyterian congregation in what was then called “The Island”—now known  as Southwest.  From 1853 to the present, the congregation served  faithfully in both fat and lean times. Over  160 years, with its varied church facilities and the spiritual gifts of  its members, Westminster has sought to be responsive to community  needs.
