Lowes Temple Church

The community around Lowes Temple Church

It takes 4.4 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 households aren't sure there will be enough to eat, and about 1 in 5 adults live with diabetes. 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.
