Government buying church survey maps across rural counties
The United States government through Charles Galpin of the Department of Agriculture contracted to buy county maps from the Interchurch World Movement surveys. The graphics show church locations, minister residences, circuits, and community boundaries to reveal denominational reach and gaps. More than half rural pastors earn less than a living wage, and maps will aid rural church reconstruction nationwide.
