Community Day Brings South L.A. Together in Love

From the moment that Community Day kicked-off on Jan. 19, throngs of people filled the parking lot outside Power of Love Ministries to receive free groceries, clothing, jobs information and health screenings. The 24th annual gathering, hosted by Bishop Edward Turner and members of Power of Love, attracted thousands of residents from neighborhoods surrounding the church’s Manchester and Normandie location in South Los Angeles. The activities included a gospel music stage featuring a range of talented performers along with several vendors such as the Watts Foundation, the Nation of Islam Sister Marketplace, Allmed Medical and Hope for Life, L.A.
