Homeboy Industries - Nothing Stops A Bullet Like A Job
I started going to church five weeks ago. They brought in a guest speaker last week, Father Greg Boyle. Father Boyle founded Homeboy Bakery in 1992, a business committed "to creating an environment that provided training, work experience, and above all, the opportunity for rival gang members to work side by side." This developed into Homeboy Industries.

His stories were amazing. So amazing, in fact, that I invite you to listen. It's 25 minutes long. Emo Warning: The ones who have a tendency to get dust in their eyes should keep a box of tissue nearby.
