St Matthews Community Church

The community around St Matthews Community Church

Within about a mile of this church, more than 5 in 10 the children here are growing up below the poverty line. More than a third of the people here live below the poverty line, and about a third describe their own health as fair or poor. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
