Templo Fe
Templo Fe is a Pentecostal Church in the Frog Hollow neighborhood started by the late Pastor Julie Ramirez. The church was the first primary Spanish service church in the neighborhood, and when it was built, white residents were opposed to its creation. Reverend Ramirez staged a series of walking demonstrations on the land that is now the church in order to sway public opinion. In the end, Templo Fe was built and now serves a large majority of the neighborhood’s catholic population.
