It takes 7.8 miles in every direction to gather two thousand neighbors around this church. Among the people scattered across those miles, more than 3 in 10 describe their own health as fair or poor, and nearly a quarter of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat, and about 1 in 5 adults live with diabetes.
