Title supplied by cataloger. Pentecostalism, a fundamentalist religious movement within Christianity that emphasizes the role of the Holy Spirit, has its historic roots in the Azusa Street Revival in Los Angeles from 1904 to 1906. The largest Pentecostal denomination in the world is the Assemblies of God. It has over 283,413 churches and outstations in over 200 countries (over 12,311 in the U.S. alone), and approximately 57 million followers worldwide. Side view of International Pentecostal City Mission, located at 4610 Hooper Ave. It shows a large white corner building with a gray roof. The main entrance is made up of glass doors, with large glass panes going up all the way to the roof; a large sign above the door reads "Pentecostal City Mission". Residential homes are visible on on the left, as well as behind the church. Verso on photograph states that this church was formerly known as Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church German (1920s), then was the Antioch Missionary Baptist Church (1940s), and later the 29th Church of Christ Scientist (1950s), but it does not list when it acquired its current name.
