Free Will Chapel

The community around Free Will Chapel

Among the people scattered across those miles, more than 3 in 10 adults live with obesity, and about a third of adults say they are socially isolated, and nearly a quarter of the children here are growing up below the poverty line. 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.
