About Me	I am the founder of THE MERCY SEAT CATHEDRAL, a vision that GOD has blessed me with to restore broken relationships with him, and to create new ones through truth. Pastor Samuel M. Washington Holy, humble, and servant… these are just a few words that would describe Pastor Samuel Washington. Regarded as a young prodigious trailblazer and trendsetter among his colleagues and cotemporaries alike, he has proven to shown an uncommon willingnes to talk about the tough subjects that are often left unaddressed through a direct and frank approach from the scriptures. He has consistently challenged traditional religious routines in favor of relevancy, and non-effective church services in favor of impactful community integrated ministry. Born in the year of our Lord 1973 in the great metropolis of Philadelphia, Pastor Washington was molded early in the way of the Lord as a member of the Dauphin Street Baptist Church, being baptized at the tender age of 12. Similar to the young Samuel spoken of in the Old Testament of the Holy Scriptures, Pastor Samuel Washington gave himself away to the Lord, serving the people of God in a variety of capacities under his Pastor.

Created, Molded and shaped just for him, their spiritual DNA being so similar, Pastor Sam’s spirit leapt the first time he was in Lady Monica's presence, and he knew that she was his wife. Then went on to marry Lady Monica in September 2010 and have continued their wedded bliss and unified walk with God until this day. Due to his spiritual integrity, commitment to holiness, and love for simply being a servant to both the greatest and the least of God’s children, Pastor Washington has shown himself to be a man among boys, a leade...(read more)
