Gospel Ministry of Smithfield

The community around Gospel Ministry of Smithfield

Within about a mile of this church, more than 4 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. More than a third of the people here live below the poverty line, and nearly a quarter describe their own health as fair or poor. That is two thousand 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.
