Consuming Fire Ministries

The community around Consuming Fire Ministries

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 2 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. Nearly a quarter of the people here live without health insurance, and nearly a quarter describe their own health as fair or poor. That is two thousand 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.
