A previous DC resident writes:

My Asher experience proved unique in the exceptional people I met throughout. The two people who joined me as roommates during my stay also enriched my time here. They were invaluable in my efforts to explore the Mid-Atlantic, and both became friends.

Finally, the people of Asher House were sources of support and engagement in my practice of Christian Science. The apartment is a small community in which Christian Science plays a vital role, and I was thankful for it. Indeed, the Asher community quickly brought me in touch with a much larger community of Christian Scientists in Washington."
