The Local Church

The community around The Local Church

It takes 2.7 miles in every direction to gather two thousand neighbors around this church. Among the people scattered across those miles, more than 2 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them, and nearly a quarter of adults here carry depression, and more than a third of adults live with obesity. A scattered parish is still a parish.

Pray for the families driving a long way to everything — to work, to a hospital, to this door on a Sunday morning.

• Depression: 28.1%
• Obesity: 39.3%
• Social Isolation: 31.4%
