4. I think there are Churches helping and working with OWS as many did from the beginning.

The Churches in NYC have always been pretty good to the poor and homeless, especially when they were under attack by Ghouliani and his army of thugs in the NYPD.

I did read some articles about OWS joining forces with Churches to help Sandy victims. I'm sure they both appreciate the experience both have doing this kind of work. I think it is very moving the way people are doing this, all of them.
