ALL PEOPLES’ HISTORY
Established in 1942, All Peoples Christian Center is a private nonprofit 501(c)(3), non-sectarian, multi-cultural, multi-service agency located in South Central Los Angeles.
The Genungs Arrive
In October of 1942 a well used Ford coupe came rattling down East 20th Street, bringing Dan Genung, fresh out of divinity school in Chicago, and his wife, Frances to Los Angeles. Little did they dream that the tiny seed of faith they had come to plant in this community would some day flower into the All Peoples Christian Center that serves south central Los Angeles today. Their primary goal was to establish a church, but that did not come until four years later when the original "house of prayer for all peoples" was chartered in May of 1946.
United Way Funding
Through the tireless efforts of the present director, Saundra Bryant, and past RSVP director, Cheryl Jones, the Center is now a member agency of United Way. The funds have made it possible to expand the center’s program and services. As a member of the United Way family the Center has benefited from technical assistance, networking opportunities and national publicity.
Building Again
So fifty years later, we start anew. The old buildings are all gone and we are ready to serve another 50 years or more. Visit us on East 20th Street and you will find children and youth of all ages, adults and seniors, all representing the various races realizing the dream which started 60 years ago as "All Peoples Christian Center."
