The community around Change
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. Nearly a quarter of the people here live below the poverty line, and about 1 in 15 the workforce is looking for work and not finding it. That is 2,500 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.
