Last Sunday a small group of young adults was quietly at work in Ferguson MO.
Several of our folks from Temple Houses in Benton Park West spent most of Sunday performing authorized graffiti at the boarded up Kentucky Fried Chicken.
I like this creative framing of the drive-up window. Is that Banksy inspired?
Sir Gabriel, Elysia, Charlene and Cheryl. They joined others in this creative window of opportunity. To help turn anxiety into hope.
Temple Houses is a missional community of young adults living in St Louis’ Benton Park West neighborhood. They serve together as part of The Salvation Army’s Urban Mission Center. Since August they have been serving in various ways in Ferguson. Next month they will be learning at Urban Youth and The Leaders Who Love Them. You are welcome to join them for this workshop at the Temple Corps, 2740 Arsenal Street, St Louis MO.
BTW, Gail and I are headed for a home on Arsenal Street. We patiently sit with our packing boxes. Hope sometime this spring to be in Temple Houses. We are a little bit older than the TH community but they are making an exception for us.
