Protestant Churches

Trinity Presbyterian Church was first located in downtown Stockton then moved to Eighth St south Stockton in the 1960s

Despite the cultural misunderstandings of community and church members, the church still reached out to the community through offering different activities. First of all, there were bible studies offered at the church and some missionaries and nuns visited Filipina/os at home and at work. This helped the churches start to realize the personal needs of the Filipino community and to change the way that they helped them to better suit their needs. The nuns also taught preschool. The protestant church had afterschool activities for children, and also taught Tagalog, English and piano lessons for Filipinos in the area.
