Temple of the New Beginning

The community around Temple of the New Beginning

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 4 in 10 the children here are growing up below the poverty line. About a third of the people here live below the poverty line, and about 1 in 5 the workforce is looking for work and not finding it. That is 2,300 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.

Pray for the households stretched past their means, and for this church to know their names.
