The community around Bethel AME Church

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 5 in 10 adults live with obesity. Nearly half of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat, and nearly half describe their own health as fair or poor. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
