One week after a fire forced saint john the Evangelist Church to shut the doors of its sanctuary, its nonprofit partner is working to make sure people dont get cut off of Services Like its daytime shelter. What were hoping to do is to be able to raise money for the church, to be able to bring it back to its original glory, and also to be able to do it quickly.
