National Black Church Initiative Applauds The Alfred St. Baptist Church For Paying The Rent Of 338 Low-Income Families
(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) EINPresswire/ -- The National Black Church Initiative (NBCI) is a coalition of 150,000 African American and Latino faith communities, comprising 27.7 million members, which stands up and recognized Alfred Street Baptist Church for its efforts in paying rent, including back rent, for over 300 families.

Rev. Anthony Evans, President of NBCI, said,“Praise the Lord. This is a clear demonstration of the kind of faith-based service rooted in Scripture, including the teachings found in Galatians. In a time when some may question the motives behind charitable acts, NBCI views this as a genuine expression of Christian love in action.
“We commend Pastor Howard-John Wesley and the members of Alfred Street Baptist Church for their leadership and commitment to helping families in need. Acts like this reflect the enduring role of the church in communities across the country.”
