Peoples Church

The community around Peoples Church

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 7 in 10 the children here are growing up below the poverty line. Nearly half of adults live with obesity, and nearly a quarter of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
