Redding, California
Located at 1090 California Street, the Light House Church is the oldest standing structure in Redding. It was built in 1894 by African American pioneers immigrating from the east coast following the civil war. Originally an A.M.E Zion Church, this building stands as a symbol of church unity, reconciliation, and restoration of hearts as well as the oldest standing A.M.E. building in the state of California. It is an iconic building in the city of Redding and is a cornerstone on the list of the Redding's historical buildings.
This building has sat in an unfinished state of restoration for several years and the time is now to be completed! We believe that with the restoration and proper stewardship of this iconic structure and the ministry we are engaged in, will have considerable impact in the morale of the downtown and will quickly become a gem to be seen in our wonderful city regardless of religion, race, or social standing.
