The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

The community around The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 in 10 households aren't sure there will be enough to eat. About 1 in 5 households fear the power or water being shut off, and about 1 in 7 the workforce is looking for work and not finding it. That is two thousand 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.
