Those of you who know me well know that if there's anyplace out there that's 'home' to my soul, my spirit - it's the Downtown Chapel - known as "my little parish" sometimes, or even affectionately as "Our Lady of the Bunker". It's a small, windowless building on a corner steeped in poverty, smelling of urine and cheap wine, and even splashed with blood on occasion.
The website's been up and running for a few years now, and really does a great job of talking about our little community, what we stand for, what matters, and the work done in Christ's name by the hospitality and pastoral staff there and dozens and dozens of volunteers. Now some of us from the community will be speaking through Faith from the Streets - the Downtown Chapel blog.
Check it out. Tell 'em I sent you. :)
