The Gulf Coast Italian American Cultural Society has a new home. An accord was sealed with the Administrative Pastor of the “Pentecostals of the Gulf Coast” and we have moved there on August 1, 2022. The Pentescostals- of the Gulf Coast - is located at 1907 Popps Ferry Road, Biloxi, MS. The society is now collocated on the premises. It has a large meeting room, a spacious hall for our future activities (with tables and chairs) and a large kitchen.
