Church of Jesus Christ

The community around Church of Jesus Christ

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. Nearly half of the children here are growing up below the poverty line, and more than a third of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat. That is 2,200 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.
