First Christian Church

The community around First Christian Church

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. More than 4 in 5 the children here are growing up below the poverty line, and nearly half of the people here live below the poverty line. That is two thousand 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.
