victory in jesus
The large letters "Victory in Jesus" attract attention as one drives along 34th Street. The Faith Temple was built in 1952 from a metal Quonset hut with a stone façade. The cornerstone on "The House that Faith Built" shows Boyd and Helen McSpadden as the "Singing Pastors." What I didn't know was that the son Gary McSpadden is an award winning gospel singer who sang with The Statesmen and the Oak Ridge Boys and worked with Bill Gaither. To hear some the Boyd and Helen gospel music on 78s, google them on YouTube.
