Mision El Buen Pastor

The community around Mision El Buen Pastor

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. More than a third of the people here live without health insurance, and more than a third of working-age adults live without health insurance. That is 2,100 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.
