A Look Back to the Past, continued Arts and AIDS In 1986 Thomas V. Stockdale came as pastor and served until 1999. His vision was of continuing and facilitating the idea of Union Avenue as a great city metropolitan church. The Arts Group of Union Avenue was formed in 1988 to promote the visual and performing arts among members of the congregation and our community. Many members became mentors for the elementary school down the block. And we continued as part of the Union Avenue Association — a group of churches, schools, city library, and community organizations serving the Union-Delmar corridor of the city. For 10 years, Food Outreach used our kitchen and other church space to prepare, cook, and distribute food for people living with HIV/AIDS. Every two weeks volunteers (including some from UACC) prepared and distributed thousands of meals to an every-growing community of people living with this deadly disease. To this day, our church has remained a steadfast supporter of the battle against AIDS by hosting the twice-monthy meetings of the St. Louis HIV Services Planning Council (a consortium of AIDS services organizations providing life-giving services to the men, women and children in our community who are living with HIV and AIDS). more
