The community around Oasis Christian Centre

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 2 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 1 in 10 the workforce is looking for work and not finding it. That is 2,100 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.
