El Shaddai

The community around El Shaddai

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 describe their own health as fair or poor, and nearly a quarter of working-age adults live without health insurance. That is 2,200 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.
