The Church Of God

The community around The Church Of God

Within about a mile of this church, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About a third of adults say they are socially isolated, and about a third of the people here live below the poverty line. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
