The community around Free Christian Center
Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About 3 in 4 the children here are growing up below the poverty line, and nearly half of adults live with obesity. That is 2,100 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.
