Introduction
Glad Tidings Church, located at 1289 Eddy Street in San Francisco's Tenderloin district, is an independent Pentecostal congregation founded in 1907. It was established by participants in the Azusa Street Revival including William Seymour, making it one of the earliest Pentecostal churches on the West Coast. The building is a simple early-20th-century wood-frame structure with a modest facade that blends into the surrounding Tenderloin apartment blocks. In the mid-20th century, the church ran the renowned "Save Action" homeless outreach program, providing food, clothing, and shelter information to Tenderloin residents, exemplifying the integration of faith and social service. The church continues Sunday worship and community assistance today.
