When Westside Baptist Church closed its doors after 75 years, the building was handed over to Hispanic church Pozo de Esperanza led by Jose Delgado pictured above.
When one church closes, its doors open to another. After 75 years, Westside Baptist Church in Gainesville disbanded to make room for the Pozo de Esperanza congregation. Westside donated the historic brick buildings and property on Atlanta Highway to the Chattahoochee Baptist Association’s New Work Foundation.
