The Church of All Faiths is a non-denominational church at 2100 - 5th Avenue that start about 1966.
They held their first services in the amphitheater at Mosswood Park. They then used a chapel in a funeral home, and then met at Jenny Lind Hall. They wanted to construct a building at 4067 Foothill in 1968, but were unable to get financing. They acquired the 5th Avenue building in 1969. Rev. R.C. Thomas was the pastor. 1
The building was constructed c.1940 for the Swedish Mission Covenant Church.
Church of All Faiths is still an active church based on their Facebook page, although they recently went through a bankruptcy proceeding that has now been dismissed and a lender has threatened to foreclose on their mortgage.
