The Bowery Mission


One of my most thrilling moments came in March of 2003 when I was able to photograph Jay Kesler speaking at the dedication of the newly-remodeled Bowery Mission Chapel in New York City.

Just a few blocks from the site of the World Trade Center, the Bowery Mission Chapel was a relief spot for tired workers who sifted through the building's rubble looking first for survivors and eventually for the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Kesler is a powerful communicator and linked in a very personal way to the men who attended that day with a message of God's love and second chances.
