Salem Church

The community around Salem Church

Among the people scattered across those miles, more than 4 in 10 adults live with obesity, and about 1 in 5 the workforce is looking for work and not finding it, and about a third of adults say they are socially isolated. A scattered parish is still a parish.

Pray for the families driving a long way to everything — to work, to a hospital, to this door on a Sunday morning.
