The Big White Church on the Corner

For over 60 years, Greater Emanuel Temple has been a pillar in the Lynwood and greater Los Angeles community. Located on the corner of E. Imperial and Bullis, we have served families, fed our neighbors, created opportunities for youth, launched nonprofits, and shared the love of Christ week after week. We are a multigenerational church with one heart: serve the community well.

Every Tuesday, over 200 families receive food from our church.
Every week, lives are changed inside these walls.
For generations, this house has been a place where faith is restored and community is built.

This building has never just been a church. It has been a lifeline.

In 2016, we remodeled the inside to better serve our community. In 2025, we began transforming the entire exterior, replacing the roof, restoring the siding, and repainting the church so it reflects the excellence happening inside.

Now, we are completing the final phase: the courtyard, new signage, and landscaping.

This space will continue to welcome the 200+ families we serve each week.
It will be a safe gathering place for youth.
It will help us launch our early learning school.
It will complete a building that has given to this community for over six decades.

We’ve already sacrificed and raised so much internally.
Now we’re asking for something simple:

A Small gift. For a Big finish.

By donating just $20, we move closer to completing the work.

The Big White Church on the Corner isn’t just renovating.
We're positioning a community cornerstone 60 years of impact.
