"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts 
of wickedness in the heavenly places.  
​Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day,
and having done all, ​to stand."​

We are a group of volunteers in the community that want to make the world a better place to raise families.

30.3% of Willimantic, CT residents had an income below the poverty level in 2019, which was 66.9% greater than the poverty level of 10.0% across the entire state of Connecticut. Taking into account residents not living in families, 26.0% of high school graduates and 40.0% of non high school graduates live in poverty.
