Rev. Violet Little's Welcome Church
It all began on a cold day in 2006, when the Reverend Violet Little walked into a public restroom in Philadelphia. Inside, she found a woman washing her hair in the sink; and another, using the hand dryer to warm her clothes. They were the city's homeless; the silent voices in the night. It was within this moment that the Welcome Church was born -- a 'church without walls', and one that would soon become Philadelphia's refuge for the homeless. Since then, Little's church has grown by leaps and bounds. And now, offers the support of hundreds of homeless and non-homeless volunteers. Take a moment to read how one woman's heart is helping to change this world.
