Greater Refuge Cooljc Gifford

The community around Greater Refuge Cooljc Gifford

Within about a mile of this church, more than 4 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. More than half of the children here are growing up below the poverty line, and nearly half of the people here live below the poverty line. 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.
