The community around Wrightsville Avenue Church of God

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 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 about 1 in 5 the people here live without health insurance. 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.
