Carey Chapel

It takes 3.5 miles in every direction to gather two thousand neighbors around this church. Among the people scattered across those miles, more than 3 in 10 adults say they are socially isolated, and about a third have no one they feel they can count on, and nearly a quarter describe their own health as fair or poor. A scattered parish is still a parish.
