40 Days, 40 Churches
Day 42: Triple Rock Church, Chicago IL
Located on the south side of Chicago, the Triple Rock Church played a vital role in the continued operation of St. Helen of the Blessed Shroud orphanage. It was at this church that two of the orphanage's former residents, Jake and Elwood Blues, were divinely (and musically) inspired by the Reverend Cleophus James to reform their band and raise the money necessary to pay the back taxes on the orphanage building. How no one got a sainthood out of this is beyond me.
