Brick City Church

The community around Brick City Church

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 in 10 households aren't sure there will be enough to eat. About a third describe their own health as fair or poor, and about a third of working-age adults live without health insurance. That is 2,500 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.

Pray for the tables that run short before the month does, and for this church's table to be long.
