Directed by Leonard Smith III
The Gulfside Assembly Story is an award-winning documentary chronicling a century of courage, faith, and resilience of Gulfside Assembly in Waveland, Mississippi. This documentary has been accepted for national broadcast on PBS, and we are seeking sponsorship partners to raise $175,000+ to bring this powerful story to millions of viewers across America.
This is more than a documentary; in three acts it presents the story of Bishop Robert E. Jones, the history of Gulfside Assembly, and the Gulfside Experience. It's a testament to the power of sanctuary in the face of oppression, the strength of community during segregation, and the enduring legacy of a place that forever changed and continues to change lives.
