First Community Church

The community around First Community Church

It takes 3.3 miles in every direction to gather two thousand neighbors around this church. Among the people scattered across those miles, more than 2 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them, and more than a third of adults say they are socially isolated, and nearly a quarter describe their own health as fair or poor. 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.
