The community around Southside Gospel Fellowship

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 5 in 10 the children here are growing up below the poverty line. Nearly half of adults live with obesity, and more than a third of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat. That is 2,200 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
