The community around Iglecia La Luz del Mundo

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 4 in 10 adults live with obesity. More than a third of the children here are growing up below the poverty line, and more than a third of working-age adults live without health insurance. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
