Standing out against a dreary sky

I could only catch this on a drive-by, but those golden domes really caught my eye. I thought it might be an Orthodox church, but turns out it’s the headquarters of the United House of Prayer for All People, a predominantly African-American Oneness Pentecostal denomination, founded in 1927 in Massachusetts.

A United House for Prayer for All People sounds good if it lives up to the beauty of the building.

It is very eye catching. It looks almost mosque like ( except for the crosses). V

One of the churches in town here has a gold dome like this. Indeed, very nice on a dreary day. You have so many interesting buildings in DC.
