On Sunday, Nick Coleman published a column about a homeless WWII vet and how he received help from a Catholic outreach program. It gave a good picture of how troubled people can get tangled up in life and how one man come in from the cold.
I wondered how Katherine Kersten might handle the same subject. I didn't have to wait long.
Today's Kersten column covers some of the same ground, but from the perspective of the religious institution, Salvation Army's Harbor Light program. The homeless and addicts mentioned are summarized in a few words. Selfless workers get their due, but the story is about God, not how the county works with nonprofits to provide social services.
