Description
This photograph was taken on a recent trip to New York City, specifically the 9/11 memorial area. I was walking to the site when I came upon this small church among the large skyscrapers surrounding it. I learned that this small church was St, Pauls Church. The church is located directly across the street from the World Trade Center complex. During that horrific morning on the attack of the World Trade Center buildings this small church remained standing. The church was instrumental in ministering to the victims of 9/11 and workers for many months to come. Volunteers comforted workers during their breaks from searching for bodies, cleaning up debris from the fallen twin towers, and provided some calmness for the relief workers. It is a place where new friendships were made in the days and months after the attack.
