The community around Emanuel United Methodist Church

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. About a third of households aren't sure there will be enough to eat, and nearly a quarter of working-age adults live without health insurance. That is 3,900 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.
