A pastor from Springfield is part of a delegation working to help families struggling with payday loans.
James River Church's Chuck Greenaway was part of a group that met with officials of government agencies and members of Congress to find solutions for predatory loan practices.
Greenaway says loan businesses in Missouri can charge more than 450 percent in interest and hopes Congress will make changes.
As the Church and Community Pastor at James River Church, Greenaway tries to help families who are victims of predatory payday loans and come to the church to get help.
Greenaway says he hopes that local, state and national leaders will take notice and work toward protecting people who are trapped in debt.
