The community around The Universal Church

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About 1 in 7 the workforce is looking for work and not finding it, and about a third of adults say they are socially isolated. That is 2,300 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.

Pray for the families one rent increase away from moving, and for this church to know their names.
