Saint Philomena Catholic Church

Among the people scattered across those miles, more than 4 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them, and nearly a quarter of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat, and more than a third of adults live with obesity. A scattered parish is still a parish.

Pray for the families driving a long way to everything — to work, to a hospital, to this door on a Sunday morning.
