Who We Are
We are a congregation of English and Spanish
speaking followers of Christ in San
Francisco, between the Portola and Excelsior neighborhoods. Many in our
congregation have a Central American background, but people of a variety
of races and backgrounds worship with us each Sunday and throughout the
week. We offer all of our programs in English and Spanish so that we
may minister to the entire family. We thank God for this ministry,
as it lets us experience the divine unity within the body of Christ.
We are also active members of
American Baptist
Churches, USA, Growing
Healthy Churches, and the
Convencion Hispana de GHC. We are
very involved in giving and ministering to our community and the world as
a whole.
Our church has been involved in the Portola /
Excelsior valley for over 50 years, moving to our present location in
1962. Our Spanish congregation began in 1968.
Our pastor is the Rev. Elias Castillo, who began to
serve our congregation in 1994. We also have an associate pastor,
Rev. David Ankcorn who began in 1999. |
