Evans Community Church

The community around Evans Community Church

Within about a mile of this church, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About a third of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat, and nearly a quarter of adults are worried about keeping the housing they have. 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.
