Saint Peter the Apostle Church

The community around Saint Peter the Apostle Church

Within about a mile of this church, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About 1 in 5 the people here live without health insurance, and nearly a quarter of the children here are growing up below the poverty line. 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.
