The community around The Cross Church

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 5 in 10 adults live with obesity. Nearly half of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat, and more than a third describe their own health as fair or poor. That is 2,200 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.

Pray for healing in the homes around this building, and for this church to be known as a place to bring what hurts.
