Cloudy Easter

Last night's Easter Vigil will be remembered. We turned out all the lights because the service is supposed to begin in darkness; people had candles. Then came word that the entire block had lost power. We continued. Power came back on briefly, and as it was now time in the service for the lights to come on again, everyone blew out their candles. Then it went off again five minutes later, and the candles had to be distributed and lit again.

The Chronicle has a big feature on St. Boniface, the Franciscan parish in the Tenderloin where they let the homeless sleep in the pews all morning long. Great photos with that story.
