12/04/2003 Entry: "New blogger"

Rummaging around on Ian's Messy Desk turned up new blogger UrbanArmy, a Salvation Army Officer in Poplar, East London. Church history buffs will recall that's where the Sallies began, but even without the historical interest this looks like it should be on your "blogs to watch" list. Here's a teaser

John is one of the many characters who come into our church looking for community. His life has not been easy and he is a captive to his own failures. He sees no way out. Frequently we help him with food, sometimes clothing. Mostly we just sit and chat, and give him the respect he feels he does not deserve.
